Top 40 Under 40 list features good mix of professionals: PG Chamber

The Top 40 Under 40 list unveiled by the Prince George Chamber of Commerce has no shortage of star-power.

Some of the nominees include Tim Bennett with School District 57 and Big Brothers, Big Sisters as well as Sonja Blom with the Prince George RCMP and Ross Birchall of Kask Taproom.

It’s great to see the number of young professionals experiencing professional growth in our city according to chamber CEO Todd Corrigall.

“I was absolutely blown away by some of these profiles and what some people have accomplished at such a young age is really a testament to what’s going on here in Prince George, the growth that’s been experienced and really taking note of who these people are who are doing great things in our city.”

The quality of the people who were list was equally as impressive.

“With this happening every two years, we really have an opportunity to build up those numbers, see who is coming up in the community and you look at this edition of the top 40 there is a tremendous amount of good people in the publication.”

The Top 40 Under 40 list is for 2018/19.
