Whether they’re working late into the evening to complete a big assignment, getting up early to ready their kids for school or scrambling to a nonprofit board meeting, Business Report’s 2019 Forty Under 40 class is anything but idle.
Some work for the government, some are employed in the private sector and others are their own bosses—yet all of them play a key role in making the Capital Region a better place to call home. Not only do they juggle the demands that come with nascent careers and growing families, but they also make time to volunteer for nonprofit organizations across the region, many sitting on the boards of Baton Rouge’s most influential organizations and companies.
Culling down the list of nominees for this year’s Forty Under 40 class was no small task. Business Report received 550 nominations for 292 unique candidates. A panel of community leaders and members of our staff took on the difficult challenge of choosing this year’s class.
Business Report will recognize and celebrate all of this year’s honorees at an already sold-out special event on Dec. 4 at L’Auberge Casino Hotel.
