Why, it’s the 40 under Forty awards luncheon of course. As the names and photos of the 40 winners flash on the large screens at the front of the ballroom at the Oncenter in Syracuse, colleagues, co-workers, and others cheer.
The awards program, produced by sister company BizEventz, honors individuals under the age of 40 from area businesses and nonprofits for their career achievements and contributions to their organizations and communities.
“These individuals under 40 are future leaders in our community,” Randy Elder, senior associate dean at the Whitman School of Management at Syracuse University, said at the event, held Wednesday, Nov. 14. The Whitman School was the presenting sponsor for the awards program.
If you didn’t get a chance to attend the 40 under Forty awards luncheon, you can read about the winners in the special section that appeared in the Nov. 9 issue of The Central New York Business Journal.
And, stay tuned next year when BizEventz (www.bizeventz.com) seeks nominations for the 2013 edition of the 40 under Forty awards.
