Past Winners


Creative, energetic, hard-working people transform our community through their everyday efforts. For 14 years, we’ve honored the community’s top young leaders. They are attorneys, bakers, doctors, technology professionals, artists and nonprofit leaders with three key qualities in common. They each lead, act and give to inspire community.

“The 20 under 40 awards are important to our community. The recipients are young professionals who volunteer their time to make Eugene/Springfield a better place in which to live. They are the leaders of our future! Congratulations to the 2018 winners and the next generation of Eugene/Springfield leaders and executives.”

Rob & Jenny (Obermiller) Bennett, winners in 2010 (Downtown Athletic Club) and 2008 (Summit Bank), respectively
