In our sixth annual list of 100 Virginians you’ll want to meet in the new year, you’ll encounter interesting people of many ages and occupations — from a doctor in his 80s who built the Chesapeake Care Clinic to a 10-year-old CEO who started his own popcorn business and whose parents are his employees.
In between, we have folks helping underrepresented entrepreneurs secure capital funding, a couple of bestselling authors, several innovative startup founders and a handful of builders behind the commonwealth’s biggest development projects — as well a sparkling list of scientists, physicians, nonprofit leaders, educators, lawyers, business owners and company executives.
This year’s cohort of 100 People to Meet even has a rapper, a sculptor, a cyclist and an Olympic gold medalist — so plunge on in. You’ll definitely find some people here you’ll want to introduce yourself to in 2025. As always, you can break the ice by saying you read about them in Virginia Business.
