Thirty young professionals were named the recipients of the thirteenth annual “30 for the Future” award. Part of the Greater Akron Chamber’s strategy to attract and retain talent in the region, the “30 for the Future” award honors young professionals (ages 25-39) who are trendsetters in their industries, and who make an impact on the region through dynamic leadership and community service.
These 30 individuals were honored at a dinner awards program on September 19, 2019.
A special congratulations to Randa Nemer, Barberton City Schools, for receving this honor!
