Future 15 Young Professionals

Honoring the young professionals who are strengthening the Fox Cities!

The Fox Cities Future 15 Awards is an annual event hosted by the Fox Cities Chamber's Pulse Young Professionals Network. Each year's diverse, inspiring class of 15 honorees hails from all over the Fox Cities, serves in a variety of professional and philanthropic roles, and has a unique vision for strengthening this community. The light these YPs shine plays an integral role in attracting and retaining talent in the area. In addition, an annual "YP of the Year" award is presented to a Future 15 alumnus -- expanding the recognition and influence of the Fox Cities' talented young professionals. The judging panel will be a composite of past Young Professional of the Year recipients and upstanding business leaders in the Fox Cities region.

Attend the 2021 Celebration
After honoring our Future 15 virtually in 2020, we're excited to be back with an in-person awards celebration for 2021. The 2021 Fox Cities Future 15 will be presented Thursday, Dec. 9 at The 513 in Appleton (time TBA).
