Hello Social Co. named in ’50 to Follow” Women-Owned Businesses’
Hello Social Co. is honored to be named one of Pennsylvania Business Central’s 2026 “50 to Follow” Women-Owned Businesses! Thank you to our amazing team, clients, and community for your continued support.
Each year, the special edition honors bold, forward-thinking women who have transformed entrepreneurial dreams into thriving businesses. Since its inception, the 50 to Follow Women Owned Businesses program has highlighted organizations that demonstrate resilience, creativity, and an unwavering commitment to excellence.
Despite the challenges businesses have faced in recent years, the women-owned organizations featured in the 2026 edition exemplify perseverance, innovation, and exceptional leadership. This year’s honorees represent a diverse range of industries—including construction, marketing, information technology, healthcare, professional services, manufacturing, retail, and nonprofit organizations—illustrating the depth of talent and entrepreneurial spirit found across Central Pennsylvania.
“We continue to be inspired by the remarkable women who are building successful companies while strengthening the communities they serve,” said David N. Wells, Publisher of Pennsylvania Business Central, Women in Business, and Workforce & Careers. “These business owners are creating jobs, driving economic development, mentoring future leaders, and demonstrating that entrepreneurship continues to thrive throughout our region.”
The publication extends its sincere appreciation to the business leaders, chambers of commerce, economic development organizations, and loyal readers throughout its 23-county coverage area who submitted nominations and helped identify this year’s outstanding recipients.
The 2026 class includes both familiar names and first-time honorees. Many have previously been recognized through Pennsylvania Business Central’s signature recognition programs, including Top 100 People, Women Making a Difference, and prior 50 to Follow Women-Owned Businesses editions. Others are emerging entrepreneurs whose businesses are making an immediate and meaningful impact within their industries and local communities.
By recognizing both established organizations and promising startups, the program not only celebrates today’s accomplished women entrepreneurs but also inspires the next generation of business leaders to pursue their own entrepreneurial ambitions.
As this special edition concludes, Women in Business now turns its attention to its next signature publication, Top CEOs & Leaders, scheduled for publication in August 2026. The annual issue honors women whose leadership extends beyond business success into meaningful community impact. Nominations are now being accepted and are available on the Pennsylvania Business Central website under the Top Lists Nominations section by selecting Top CEOs & Leaders.
