The challenges facing women in the business world are well documented. Persistent stereotypes lead to invidious discrimination. The old-boy network protects its members. Access to capital can be limited. Competing demands often create self-doubt.

All are troubling and should be eliminated. While progress has been made on that front, succeeding as a business owner remains more difficult for women.

And yet, so many make it work. Credit their energy, talent, intelligence and perseverance – the qualities shared by most successful business leaders. It should be no surprise that those qualities will be evident in half the population.

With this issue, LVB recognizes and celebrates women who demonstrate those qualities and put them to use in building prosperous companies. The businesses profiled in these pages hail from a wide variety of industries. The story of successful women-owned businesses is the story of economic growth in the Greater Lehigh Valley.

So please join us in congratulating the businesses we honor here. Some started from scratch and built thriving companies; others took over going concerns and made them better. All of them possess the drive and ability to succeed in a world still structured to hold them back. As you read the profiles, reflect on that fact and what it took to earn a place on this list.

All of our honorees are listed in alphabetical order on the following pages. Enjoy!
