Introducing the 2020 honorees
While not yet "alumni," Mainebiz will honor four Business Leaders of the Year at the reception on April 28.
They are:
Roccy Risbara
Principal / Risbara Bros.
What he's being honored for: Risbara leads the partnership that is
developing e Downs, 500 acres that had been part of the Scarborough
Downs racetrack. e development, already well underway, will include
much needed housing, retail and an Innovation Park, with space for
light industrial companies. e fact that it is close to I-95, Route 1
and fast-growing areas of southern Maine makes it a sort of "hole in
the doughnut," ripe for development.
Tim Hebert
Founder, chairman / STARC Systems
What he's being honored for: Hebert already had a growing con-
struction firm, Hebert Construction, which was increasingly being
put to work on hospital expansions. e work called for barriers
between the construction zones and the sterile areas of the hospital.
Hebert had the idea of creating a clean barrier between the two areas
and, in 2012, a company was born. His team, including the executive
team, has grown and the company now has more than 50 employees
and has taken over larger and larger spaces at Brunswick Landing.
