The Fox Cities Future 15 Young Professional Awards presented by Pulse and The Post-Crescent.
Pulse and The Post-Crescent in partnership with UW Fox Valley are proud to announce The 2012 Future 15 Young Professional Awards!

The Fox Cities has thousands of young professionals who excel within their places of employment and in the community.  It's that time of year to recognize these individuals for the great work they do!  These professionals not only excel in their respective fields and positively influence the quality of life in the Fox Cities, but they've had a hand in attracting and retaining young talent to the area.

Nominate outstanding young professional with the online application form here. 
Self nominations are encouraged.

All nominees will receive an application to be completed by the deadline given.  A panel of judges consisting of area business leaders will review all applications and choose 15 of the top young professionals in the Fox Cities.

The public will also have the opportunity to get involved.  After all the applications have been filled out, we will be posting all the candidates on the postcrescent.com.  The public will have the opportunity to vote on who they think should be a part of the Future 15.  These votes will count for 10% of the vote. 

The Future 15 will be recognized at an event on Tuesday, May 15, 2012 at the Communication Arts Center on the campus of the University of Wisconsin-Fox Valley  and will be featured inside The Post-Crescent.
