Beth Rheingold Named to "2026 Maryland's Top 100 Women"

PIKESVILLE, Md. (March 10, 2026)– The Greater Baltimore Chamber of Commerce (GBCC), proudly announces that its president and CEO, Dr. Beth Rheingold, was named to The Daily Record’s 2026 list of Maryland’s Top 100 Women.

Maryland’s Top 100 Women annually recognizes high-achieving Maryland women who are making an impact through their leadership, community service and mentoring. A panel of business and legal professionals, previous honorees from throughout the state and a representative of The Daily Record selected this year’s honorees based on their educational and career history, professional and community involvement, corporate and nonprofit board memberships and mentoring experience.

Regarded as “trailblazers who demonstrate extraordinary leadership,” the honorees will be recognized at an awards celebration May 4 at SECU Arena at Towson University and will be featured in a special publication produced by The Daily Record.

“I am deeply honored to be included among such an inspiring group of women leaders across Maryland,” said Rheingold. “This recognition reflects the work of an entire community—our chamber members, board leadership and partners across Baltimore County who understand the importance that any strong county must have a strong county chamber.”

Rheingold holds an IOM certificate from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce’s prestigious Institute for Organization Management, an honor held by only 5 percent of nonprofit leaders globally.Her work bridges business leadership with community impact, bringing together public agencies, private employers and nonprofit organizations to strengthen the region’s economic vitality.

In addition to leading GBCC initiatives that strengthen economic development, workforce partnerships and business collaboration across Baltimore County, she oversees the long-running Pikesville Farmers Market, which supports local agriculture, small businesses and entrepreneurs and food access for thousands of residents each year.

“Beth is a leader who strengthens institutions and builds communities,” said GBCC Board Chair Kimberly Fernandez. “She brings clarity of vision, disciplined leadership and a deep commitment to serving businesses and residents throughout Baltimore County.”

Having spent nearly two decades as an educator before transitioning into nonprofit and chamber leadership in 2019, Rheingold has guided the GBCC through periods of significant transition, including the COVID-19 pandemic and its expansion to a county chamber, helping ensure businesses across the county continue to have a strong voice and a stable business network.

Through her work at the intersection of business, government and community organizations, Rheingold advances initiatives that support entrepreneurs, small businesses and major employers alike. She also serves as Chair of the Baltimore County Workforce Development Board, reflecting the confidence regional leaders place in her leadership and understanding of workforce issues.
