Nominations for the 2023 Awards are now open. Click here to go to the free nomination form.
The 40 Under 40 Awards spotlight the top practicing public accountants, educators and thought leaders who are leading their profession by visibly and incrementally changing the accounting profession through their exemplary leadership, their innovative thinking, their collaborative efforts to provide unity to the profession across the generations, and their community outreach which extends the visibility of the profession outside the workplace.
The 20 Under 40 Influencers program similarly honors professionals at technology vendors who are leading the way in developing the constantly evolving technology and firm processes that allow practitioners to be more productive, efficient and profitable, as they help firms build practices that will endure and thrive.
Candidates for the each award should be actively involved in advancing the profession either from within, or by supporting technologies that assist firms and professionals in their practice or client service. Once selected, award winners are asked to identify the key individuals who have influenced them in their careers, where they see the profession heading, and how others can prepare for these changes.
