The Inland Marine Expo (IMX) 40 Under 40 Award recognizes men and women under the age of 40 who have made significant contributions to the inland marine transportation industry and collectively promise to play a big role in shaping its future.
Awards will be presented to young professionals working on towboats, passenger vessels or other commercial craft, as well as those working shoreside at a port, terminal, shipyard or fleet. Those providing professional services to the industry such as surveyors, freight or equipment brokers, engineers, and consultants also qualify.
Those who are selected as an IMX 2020 40 Under 40 professional, along with the person who nominated him or her, will receive free registration to the 2020 Inland Marine Expo on September 29- October 1, 2020, at the Dome @ America’s Center in St. Louis, Mo., where they will also be invited to a special recognition ceremony.
