Julie Gilbert Named Among MSN's Top 10 Visionary Entrepreneurs to Watch in 2026
We're proud to share that Julie Gilbert, Founder & CEO of Full Throttle Growth & Capital, has been named among MSN's Top 10 Visionary Entrepreneurs to Watch in 2026. The feature ran on MSN on September 30, 2026.
The list profiles ten founders and executives across industries, from new ventures to established companies moving into new territory, who are building businesses with staying power. MSN calls Julie the "Growth and Turnaround Whisperer," working where technology and business meet to help boards and CEOs turn ambition into growth.
The profile highlights the record behind that name: chair, vice chair and committee roles across public, private equity, venture-backed and family companies; advising more than 50 companies on growth, turnarounds, exits and IPOs; helping grow Best Buy from $15 billion to more than $45 billion in revenue; founding and exiting an AI platform that scaled to 178 countries; and co-founding a national security AI decision platform.
It joins Julie's other 2026 honors, including NY Weekly's Top 10 Visionary Entrepreneurs and 50/50 Women on Boards' 50 Women to Watch for Boards.
