We’re excited to announce the second edition of our Young Leaders to Watch program. This is your opportunity to highlight the rising stars who are shaping the future of our industry.
Do you know someone aged 40 or under in the outdoor and surf industries who’s making waves, driving innovation, or inspiring others? Do you feel that you qualify, and want to nominate yourself?
Now’s your chance to give them the recognition they deserve. Selected leaders will be featured on our site and social media channels, gaining visibility and celebrating their contributions to the industry. See last year’s winners here.
Here’s what we need for each nominee:
- Their name, title and company
- Why they’re deserving of recognition — concrete examples of their skills, attitude, creativity and how they’ve demonstrated these attributes on the job
- A photo
- Their social media handles
- Contact information
Let’s celebrate the next generation of leaders who are making a difference.
Email questions and submissions to:Â editorial@shop-eat-surf-outdoor.com
Deadline: April 23, 2026.
Help us shine a light on the leaders of tomorrow.
