Mainebiz is proud to present the 2024 Mainebiz Business Leaders of the Year. We think you'll be fascinated to learn about these 12 remarkable individuals.

As you'll see, they span the state and come from a diverse range of industries, including the nonprofit sector. From entrepreneurs to educators, from people who are beginning their careers to people who are retired, this year's class is an impressive bunch.

The Mainebiz team invites you to congratulate and thank these leaders for their contributions to our economy, our state and our daily lives. Please join us at an awards reception on Wednesday, April 10.
