📅 4 days ago

The 40 Under 40 awards program highlights emerging leaders in the Canadian industrial sector, recognizing their contributions and potential.

The anticipation is building as the 40 Under 40 Industrial Leaders program enters its final phase. SiteMedia has reported an unprecedented number of nominations, covering a wide array of fields within the industrial sector including development, construction, mining, engineering, and transportation. After careful consideration, 100 exceptional professionals have been shortlisted and will now face evaluation from our esteemed judges. SiteNews Editor Russell Hixson emphasized the importance of quality over quantity in this selection process, stating, "It isn’t just about quantity, it’s about quality. These aren’t just professionals who have great industrial careers. They are pushing the boundaries of the industrial sector and helping elevate the next generation behind them." This awards initiative is dedicated to recognizing rising stars under the age of 40 who are making significant contributions to the Canadian economy. Powered by SiteMedia, the program is supported by seven of its industrial publications: SiteNews, ReNew Canada, STOREYS, Water Canada, Environment Journal, Waste & Recycling, and Hazmat. This year's panel of judges includes notable industry figures such as Kalpna Solanki, Kenny Leon, Derek Bunting, Mike Maierle, and Andrew Hansen. They will evaluate each finalist and select the 40 winners who will represent the class of 2026. The celebration does not end with the announcement of the winners. Honorees, alumni, and current industry leaders will come together for a special event at BREWHALL in Vancouver on October 29th. Early bird tickets for this gathering are now available, with discounts offered to all finalists and winners.
