2026 Nominations OPEN
Nominations are now open for the 2026 40 Under 40 awards.
Future Shapers
The 40 Under 40 is a globally recognised program that celebrates not only the personal determination and commercial drive of young business leaders but also the philanthropic pursuits that balance these individuals’ professional achievements.
They come from different sectors, backgrounds, and paths, yet are united by purpose, ambition, and impact. Their leadership isn’t defined by uniformity; it’s defined by how their differences are woven together to shape the future.
The 40 Under 40 celebrates leaders who lead with authenticity, resilience, and character, who are shaped by challenge, purpose and experience.
Because the most powerful stories aren’t styled. They’re lived.

Join us for an unforgettable awards evening on 11 June 2026 at Adelaide Oval, as we celebrate the inspiring young South Australians helping to shape the future of our state.
