Boulder County Business Report – BCBR names Forty Under 40 group

BOULDER – Forty young businesspeople have been named to the Boulder County Business Report’s inaugural Forty Under 40 group.

Members of the group are young emerging leaders under the age of 40 in the Boulder Valley. They will be recognized during a networking event from 5:30 to 8 p.m., Tuesday, Feb. 16, at the Boulder Theater, 2032 14th St. in Boulder. Honorees also will be profiled in a special section published in the Boulder County Business Report’s Feb. 19 issue.

The group was selected by members of the Business Report’s staff from a field of 77 nominees.

“We were very impressed by the quality of the nominations and the caliber of the individuals nominated,” said Christopher Wood, Business Report publisher. “The Boulder Valley is very fortunate to have these dynamic young professionals poised to assume leadership roles – and many who have already done so.”
