Seven YLNI members to receive “40 Under 40” award!

We’re proud to say that seven YLNI members will be among the 40 young professionals in the Greater Fort Wayne area to receive a “40 Under 40” Award this evening.

“40 Under 40” is Fort Wayne Business Weekly’s recognition program that honors selectmen and women under the age of 40 in the 16-county area who are helping to shape the future through their business and community involvement. They were nominated because of their current demonstration of leadership and their likelihood of being part of the next generation that will make the Greater Fort Wayne area an outstanding region to live and work.

Our VP of membership, Amy Johnson, said it best, the seven folks receiving this recognition is a testament to the caliber of leadership within YLNI. And, we can’t wait to see the positive changes they will make as they continue to work to improve our region.

The nominees will be recognized this evening at the “40 Under 40” Awards Event at 6 p.m. at YOLO’s Event Center, so join us in congratulating them! It’s not too late to make a reservation, visit: http://www.fwbusiness.com/special/40under40.
