The newsletter you know and love is getting a new name.
The newsletter you know and love is getting a new name.Fortune

Good morning! SpaceX completes a major mission, Fearless Fund gets back into investing, and the Broadsheet enters its next chapter. See you tomorrow!

– New name. Did you know the Broadsheet is 10 years old? That’s right—this newsletter about women leaders and the issues that matter to them celebrated its 10-year anniversary this summer.

Over that time, the world has changed—as has the conversation about women’s role in it. We’ve been through three presidential election cycles with an evolving cultural understanding of female candidates, the rise (and fall?) of corporate DEI, the ever-changing dialogue around female founders and the so-called girlboss, and a surge in the number of female CEOs running Fortune 500 companies; that stat has more than doubled over the past decade.

I’ve been working on this newsletter for six of those years, and took it over full-time just over two years ago. Before that transition, it was authored by the incredible journalists Caroline Fairchild, Kristen Bellstrom, and Claire Zillman (who still edits it every day!).

Now feels like a moment to reflect on how the Broadsheet can best reach readers in the years ahead. And on that note (*drumroll please*) as of today, the Broadsheet will be named Most Powerful Women Daily, or MPW Daily.

For those of you who don’t know, the Most Powerful Women franchise at Fortune stretches back even farther than the Broadsheet—to 1998, when Fortune ran its first annual Most Powerful Women in Business list. Newsletter readers have likely come across the franchise’s tentpoles, from that list to our longform journalism about female business leaders to the annual Most Powerful Women Summit, which kicks off in Laguna Niguel, Calif., today.

This renaming is meant to align this newsletter further with that 26-year-old franchise. Fortune Most Powerful Women, in all its forms, is a big reason this newsletter has lasted for a decade amid a media environment that has not been friendly to women’s publications.

As MPW Daily, we’ll still bring you all the stories we did as the Broadsheet. You’ll find analysis of the biggest news stories affecting women, profiles of women business leaders and their companies, and the occasional commentary on politics and culture. We are more committed than ever to reporting these stories and ensuring they reach readers who care. And the newsletter will remain free to subscribe to—new subscribers can sign up here. (If you have any thoughts on what we should be covering in this next chapter, please email me at the address below!)

So please tell your friends (and email filters!) to open emails from MPW Daily when they hit your inboxes at 9:30 a.m. ET each weekday morning. Thank you for all your support over the past decade—and cheers to the decade ahead!

P.S. Stay tuned this week for coverage from the MPW Summit, where I’ll be interviewing Cameron Diaz and Sue Bird—and we’ll hear from other leaders including Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson and GM CEO Mary Barra. You can tune into the livestream here starting Tuesday.

ALSO IN THE HEADLINES

- Without fear. Arian Simone’s Fearless Fund announced its first investment since settling the anti-affirmative action lawsuit that was brought against its grant program for Black women. The fund invested in an e-commerce platform called Zimi. TechCrunch

- Not quite better. Ex-employees are speaking out about BetterBrand, a startup backed by Alexis Ohanian's firm that was known for making bagels with more protein. Founded by Aimee Yang, the startup has run into fundraising issues and seemed to have shut down (which it has denied). The Information

- If the shoe fits. Even though Sara Blakely’s new brand Sneex didn't get the warmest reception from the fashion-conscious, the Spanx founder says she stands by her design. She takes the lukewarm response as a sign she’s “doing something disruptive and novel.” Wall Street Journal

- Catch and release. SpaceX, led by Elon Musk and president and COO Gwynne Shotwell, completed the fifth test flight of its Starship rocket and successfully caught its 20-story tall booster. The achievement takes the company a step closer to creating a reusable rocket system. CNBC
