Erie's 40 Under 40
Before our very first 40 Under 40 issue hit the stands, we knew we wanted to make it a perennial subject to feature, a collection we would look forward to each year to serve both as a celebration of Erie's young talent as well as a reminder that emerging leaders, innovators and entrepreneurs are continually living and thriving in Erie, and in turn, they're leaving Erie better than they found it by cultivating its culture, developing its economy, and offering a vision for a bright future.
Every year since then, we've continued to seek out individuals who are involved and invested in the community. We’re looking for people who show potential for great things, and who are taking every step to make sure those things happen. Whether they have a laser focus on one particular discipline, or they’re involved in a multitude of efforts, they’re bound to be busy either way. And that’s what we need. Whether it be through art, academia, technology, or entrepreneurship, these are the people doing something to make our region bloom in new ways.
