From artists to entrepreneurs, IB presents the 2023 class of Forty Under 40! We think you’ll agree that this “Top 40” is impressive, passionate, and ready to lead into the future.
We also injected a little fun this year, adding a musical theme to the presentation and asking honorees for their favorite song from the year they were born. At a networking event in January, we brought them all together for their official Forty Under 40 photo shoot, and also snapped a second photo that better captured their personalities as they posed with an item or donned a costume relating to their favorite song.
For a historical look at 23 years of Forty Under 40 recipients, visit IBMadison. com/40Under40Archive.
