By Boston Business Journal Staff
The power players in Boston are the ones getting things done and leading change in the Boston economy. With that in mind, we welcome you to our third annual Boston Business Journal Power 50. This is a list designed to inform, illuminate, confirm, and invariably generate controversy.
We drew from some 100 outside nominations and our own institutional knowledge, knowing that, in some cases, some readers would be scratching their heads, saying, “Who’s that?” For everyone has their own power meter — with gauges often set by one’s industry and position.
The list forms the basis for a special print supplement in November, as well as our annual Power 50 cocktail party on Nov. 6 at the Boston Harbor Hotel.
