ENR Northwest has extended the submission deadline for its Top 20 Under 40 competition to March 16. As readers may know, the annual program honors the contributions of young industry professionals to their companies, their professions and their communities.

To recap, the program honors design and construction professionals in the states of Alaska, Washington and Oregon. Industry members are encouraged to nominate their colleagues and peers for the competition or, alternatively, nominate themselves. The only hitch: All nominees must have been under the age of 40 as of Jan. 1, 2015.

Submissions will be judged by an independent panel of industry professionals, including past 20 Under 40 honorees. Winners will receive feature coverage in the May 11 edition of ENR Northwest .

Readers can enter or learn more about the competition at our Call for Entries Page.
