Greater Rochester Chamber of Commerce and its Small Business Council affiliate have issued a call for nominations for the 40th Annual Business Person of the Year Awards, which recognize for-profit business leaders who have demonstrated success in both civic and professional areas, specifically in the areas of growth, leadership, achievement, and community service.
Greater Rochester Chamber and the Small Business Council plan to present the 40th Annual Business Person of the Year award at a celebration on Wednesday, July 26, 2023 at Nazareth College. The deadline for nominations is Monday, March 13, 2023.
To be eligible for the award, the for-profit business leader must have held a senior leadership position in their company for at least three full fiscal years. The Business Person of the Year may be, but need not be, the owner of their for-profit business. An independent Selection Committee of local business leaders and advisors reviews applications and selects finalists in two categories: For-profit businesses with 50 employees or more; and For-profit businesses with fewer than 50 employees.
Greater Rochester Chamber of Commerce President and CEO Bob Duffy, said, “Small and midsize businesses make up the majority of businesses in our region, and leadership matters at organizations of all sizes. We look forward to joining our Small Business Council to honor the men and women who are doing an exceptional job leading these successful businesses and driving our regional economy.”
