The Nashville Area Chamber of Commerce and YP Nashville are now accepting nominations for the next class of NELAS honorees. If you know a young professional making a meaningful impact in their workplace or community, now is the time to submit their name for consideration.
The NELAS presented by the Jack C. Massey College of Business at Belmont University, recognizes emerging leaders ages 21 to 40 who are excelling in their careers while also contributing to the growth and well-being of the Nashville region. Each year, the program shines a spotlight on young professionals across multiple industries who demonstrate leadership, innovation, and a strong commitment to their community.
Submitting a nomination is simple. The nomination form collects basic information about the individual being nominated, including their name, organization, and contact information. Once submitted, the nominee receives an email invitation to complete the full application, where they can share more about their professional achievements, leadership experience, and community involvement.
Finalists are selected across a range of industry categories, and winners are announced at the annual NELAS celebration, where the region gathers to recognize the next generation of leaders shaping Middle Tennessee’s future.
If you know someone who is launching ideas, leading teams, giving back to the community, or helping move the region forward, nominate them today.
Help us celebrate the rising leaders shaping what comes next for our region.
