BizTimes Media is proud to announce  Milwaukee’s Notable Alumni,  a special editorial feature within BizTimes Milwaukee’s March 25, 2021 Anniversary Issue and on Biztimes.com, that will profile outstanding local alumni from higher education institutions in the 8-county area. Your organization, and its executives, are invited to submit a nomination that will help us determine this year’s honorees.

The special section will recognize individuals for their success and accomplishments during the past 12 to 18 months. Nomination forms must be completed and submitted by Friday, February 12 to be considered. All sections of the form must be completed for consideration. You will be required to upload a high-resolution digital head-shot (300 dpi minimum), and a bio/pitch about your nominee (up to 300 words) during this process.

Please bear in mind that honoree profiles in the published section will be created using the information supplied in the nomination form. We will not accept revised nomination forms, so take care that what you provide is accurate. BizTimes Milwaukee editorial staff holds full rights to edit information provided to meet style and editorial standards. Content may also be edited based on the allowed space for the section and individual profiles in both print and online. Please do not submit information that is subject to change by the publishing date (March 25). Please also do not submit information you consider to be confidential. Honoree profiles will NOT be available before the section publishes and revisions will not be made. Important criteria for consideration:
