BizTimes Media is proud to announce our upcoming section of Notable Executive Veterans. When military veterans come back from their services, they often bring skills that help with corporate skirmishes. BizTimes Milwaukee will be celebrating the professionals who have served the country before they were stationed at a desk with a special editorial feature within our November 11, 2024, issue and online (Biztimes.com).

Organizations and individuals are invited to submit a nomination that will help BizTimes determine the honorees. This special section will recognize individuals primarily for (but not limited to) their accomplishments during the past 12 to 18 months.

Forms must be completed and submitted by October 4, 2024.

ALL sections of the form must be completed for consideration. You also must upload a high-resolution digital headshot (300 dpi minimum) and a bio/nomination about your nominee (up to 300 words).

Please bear in mind that the final honoree profiles will be created using only the information supplied in the nomination form, so include all relevant details. Also, all subjective statements must be attributed (or we will attribute them to the nominator).

BizTimes Milwaukee editorial staff will edit submitted information to meet style and editorial standards and the final profile word limit of 150-170. Please do not include information that is subject to change by the publication/posting date or that you consider to be confidential.

• Nominated individuals must be based in the southeastern Wisconsin area to qualify (Milwaukee, Waukesha, Ozaukee, Jefferson, Racine, Kenosha, Washington, Walworth and Sheboygan counties).
