2024 Women to Watch Honorees
Now in their 15th year, the Mainebiz Women to Watch awards honor women who have demonstrated leadership in wide-ranging sectors of business, health care and the nonprofit world. Mainebiz has recognized more than 75 leaders this way. We're acknowledging six in 2024 — individuals who have had an impact from Caribou to Skowhegan to Portland and throughout Maine.
Women to Watch: Grace Mo-Phillips is an entrepreneur, mentor to underserved women
At the CEI Women’s Business Center in Portland, Program Director Grace Mo-Phillips draws inspiration from the alumni of the BIPOC Women’s Business Navigator she has created and leads.
Women to Watch: Penny Thompson is a city manager with a knack for communicating, learning
Managing the City of Caribou means being a generalist and learning from others, says Thompson. She believes in education as a tool for creating a better, more engaged municipal workforce.
On the Record: Chargely CEO aims to build a community of electric vehicle drivers

Today's Poll
The 2025 summer tourism season has gotten off to a rainy start, with rain affecting at least part of each weekend so far.
For businesses like wedding venues, tour boats or restaurants that depend on outdoor seating, rain can put a damper on attendance and sales.
Office-based businesses may not be as affected.
And farms, orchards and nurseries may welcome rain — as long as it doesn't come with high winds or all at once.
