The Forty Under 40 awards recognize 40 leaders under the age of 40 who have made a significant impact in their business and community early in their careers. The event also celebrates one previous Forty Under 40 recipient, or alumnus, for his or her continued professional success and impact on the community. Honorees are chosen by a panel of past recipients who weigh equally business success and civic/philanthropic activities.
