The Columbus Business First 40 Under 40: Here are the 2023 honorees

Columbus Business First’s annual look at the region’s best and brightest young leaders has arrived with the announcement of the 2023 class of 40 Under 40.

This is the 31st class in the paper’s longest-running awards program, highlighting more than 1,200 honorees since the first group in 1993.

Check out the gallery to see the class of 2023 and their titles.

Nominees were judged on their career accomplishments, community activity, and letters of recommendation, among other factors.

We’ll publish more about the honorees in the May 26^th issue of Business First, and online that week at columbusbusinessfirst.com.

This year we’re celebrating a pillar of the Central Ohio community by holding our 40 Under 40 photo shoot at downtown’s historic Main Library, the centerpiece of the Columbus Metropolitan Library system that has been serving the community since March 4, 1873. You can find more information about the Columbus Library's 150^th anniversary celebration here.

If you want to join in the celebration of this year’s class, you can find tickets to the 40 Under 40 Awards Gala here. It will take place on Thursday, May 25^th in the Kojo Kamau ballroom at the brand new Hilton Columbus Downtown.
