TARPON SPRINGS, Fla. — The publishers of Agent Entrepreneur have announced plans to release a special edition of the magazine that will recognize up-and-coming industry executives and thought leaders who are under the age of 40. The magazine is accepting nominations now.

“The agency and product-provider segments create opportunities for young executives and entrepreneurs in several ways,” said David Gesualdo, publisher of AE and P&A magazines. “We know of several family-owned companies for which the enthusiasm and technological savvy of the next generation promises limitless potential for growth, and that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Considering the number of up-and-coming business leaders we see at Agent Summit and other industry events, narrowing this field will no doubt be a difficult task.”

The nominations will be judged on a number of factors, including the nominee’s accomplishments, industry standing and dedication to his or her work. The final roster will be announced shortly before the publication of the ‘40 Under 40’ issue, due later this year.
