Each year, CenterState CEO recognizes local businesses as Economic Champions for their contributions to the economic growth of the region through capital expenditures, hiring of new employees, expansion or relocation due to growth, and for state or national recognition.
The theme of this year’s Economic Champion Luncheon is Celebrating Business Beginnings. We’re focusing on the power of startups, the impact of neighborhood businesses owners and the entrepreneurial spirit that supports businesses of all sizes and industries in CNY!
Businesses can nominate themselves or peers as Economic Champions. Whether they have opened their doors, added one employee or more, expanded operations, invested capital expenditures, or won a state or national award, these businesses have contributed to the economic development of the region.
Nominate your business today! Then join us to celebrate on October 20th at the Economic Champions Luncheon. Nominated companies will receive recognition at the event.
