Partner Opportunity
The Junior Achievement Business Hall of Fame was created in 1982 to celebrate the entrepreneurial spirit of the Dubuque area by honoring outstanding business leaders who exemplify the ideals of free enterprise, while recognizing their great impact on our community. These men and women have succeeded in the free-market economy, and have moved our society in a better, stronger direction.
After a community-wide nomination process, laureates are selected based on their entrepreneurial achievements, their adherence to the highest moral and ethical principles, and their demonstrated community involvement. An ad-hoc committee of business leaders strived to select laureates the community can be proud of and inspired by. Laureates not only make a difference in the workplace and community, they are role models for our youth.
