Where: Press Room
Time: 6:00 PM ET
 
In 1989, the East Tennessee Business Hall of Fame was founded to honor outstanding business leaders and entrepreneurs who, through their work, have made a significant contribution to the quality of life in East Tennessee. Over 100 remarkable laureates have been inducted into the East Tennessee Business Hall of Fame since its inception. Their storied careers and backgrounds are as broad and diverse as their accomplishments are far-reaching. This event directly benefits Junior Achievement’s innovative financial literacy, work readiness, and entrepreneurship K-12 programs which are designed to inspire and empower the next generation.

Junior Achievement is proud to celebrate the legacy of these individuals and to use their success stories as models for the next generation to follow!
