Presented by ACDI
Reflecting on our four previous Young Influencers issues, The Cannata Report featured 34 young professionals in these pages, as well as on thecannatareport.com. In celebration of the Young Influencer franchise’s fifth anniversary, we are pleased to present some highlights from past issues, including photos and titles from some of our Young Influencers when they were originally featured. We also caught up with these Young Influencers for an update on where they are today. Impressively, 32 of these 34 young professionals, or 88% of them, have remained in the industry, and many have been promoted to more substantial roles, taking advantage of the opportunity to accelerate their careers in the industry. This is precisely what we were hoping to see, and we are looking forward to watching these professionals continue on their paths to success.
