The Business Journal of Tri-Cities Tennessee/Virginia will honor 40 of the region’s top business professionals September 24, at the 18th annual 40 Under Forty awards ceremony, 7:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. with a social hour to begin at 6:30.
This year’s class of 40 Under Forty honorees will be inducted into a highly-respected group that includes previous winners David Davis, Ron Ramsey, Jason Mumpower, Steve Smith, Tommy Greer, Miles Burdine, Vance Cheek, Jr., April Eads, Robert Feagins, Jeff Fleming, Jon Lundberg, Ben Mallicote, Sam Messimer, Timothy Siglin, David Temple and Tony Treadway, to name a few.
All honoree nominations were accompanied by letters of recommendation from places of employment and service organizations. Nominees are 39 years old or younger, live and work in East Tennessee or Southwest Virginia, are involved in their communities and show the potential to be a leader in the business community during the next decade.
In addition to being recognized at the ceremony, honorees will be featured in the October edition of The Business Journal of Tri-Cities Tennessee/Virginia.
In the December 1993 edition of The Business Journal, the magazine showcased the region’s first class of the next generation of movers and shakers, many of whom have risen to leadership positions in the community today. The Journal promotes young talent through this program — one that has become the top honor for Northeast Tennessee and Southwest Virginia businesspeople under the age of 40.
Dinner will be $50 a plate. There will be a cash bar.
