The Peak Awards honor the best and brightest business and community leaders throughout the Wasatch Front, the Sandy Chamber said in a release. “These outstanding individuals and business owners have served and strengthened the small-business community through their commitment to growing and scaling their business in a way that benefits the economy.”
Nominees for the first three categories are chosen by the chamber and board of directors and then voted on by the public. The remaining five awards are selected by the organization’s staff and board of directors.
“Each winner has contributed to the business community in a significant way,” said Greg Summerhays, president and CEO of the Sandy Area Chamber of Commerce. “Our economy depends on all sizes of businesses as well as individuals who go above and beyond. These award winners have created jobs, seen exponential growth, overcome adversity, and have positioned themselves as leaders in their industry.”
