As we celebrate the third year of Idaho Business Review’s Empowering Women, it’s evident that more companies and organizations are working to support, encourage and uplift women in business and the community. This year, we are honoring 20 entities that have worked diligently to recognize and empower women in all aspects of life.As we celebrate the third year of Idaho Business Review’s Empowering Women, it’s evident that more companies and organizations are working to support, encourage and uplift women in business and the community. This year, we are honoring 20 entities that have worked diligently to recognize and empower women in all aspects of life.

There are a few repeat honorees from last year’s honors and many new ones. We feel it is important to not only recognize those who have worked to promote, mentor and advance women in the workplace, but it is equally important to highlight those who continue the work of fostering diversity, equity and inclusion.

The 2026 Empowering Women awards is just one of the many ways Idaho Business Review is highlighting the businesses and organizations that are committed to making a difference by elevating women and focused on meaningful, sustainable changes

We would like to thank our sponsors who support this program and recognize the importance of the Empowering Women initiative throughout and beyond Idaho.

Congratulations to the 20 honorees who have been selected as Idaho Business Review’s 2026 Empowering Women award winners!
