ENR’s annual Regional Top Young Professional’s program is now live. The contest profiles up-and-coming leaders in the design and construction industry. 

The article on each class or regional winners will appear in the first issues of the year for each of the respective ENR regional editions next year. 

You can find more information and submit your entries to the contest here. 

The deadline to submit is June 23, 2025.

For the second straight year, the format for selecting the 2025 Top Young Professionals in ENR has changed after a regional consolidation to improve content and coverage. New York, New England and MidAtlantic magazines, newsletters and website content now merge to form ENR East. Texas-Louisiana and Southeast editions are merged as ENR Texas and Southeast; ENR Midwest region adds North and South Dakota; ENR Southwest edition ends, with ENR Mountain States now including Arizona and New Mexico coverage; and ENR California and Northwest editions merge to become the ENR West region, which also adds Nevada.

Much will remain the same in the new format, with the reformed region continuing to publish six bimonthly print and digital magazines, a twice monthly newsletter and region-specific digital content posted daily to new regional websites on ENR.com. ENR’s successful Best Projects competition and events and Top Firm rankings also will offer the same level of opportunity to showcase outstanding company work.

For the National Top 20 Under 40 contest, winners of Top Young Professionals will automatically be entered. No additional entry is required.
