Business peers recently selected Sheri Buretta, Pres. & CEO of Chugach Alaska Corporation, David Karp, SVP & Managing Director for Saltchuk and President of Naniq Global Logistics, and Mark Pfeffer, Founder of Pfeffer Development and CONRAC Solutions.

The 36th annual celebration includes a reception beginning at 5:30 p.m., dinner, and an induction ceremony at 6:30 p.m., concluding by 8:30 p.m.
The evening will also include a special recognition of the many past inductees who will be in attendance.
Individual tickets are $150, with limited sponsorship opportunities available.
Tickets and tables can be purchased online.
