Nominations for CFO of the Year due Aug. 17

LOVELAND – Like getting a tax filing extension, local businesses have a few more days to nominate their chief financial officer for the very first Northern Colorado CFO of the Year award.

The deadline is now Aug. 17. A nomination form can be found on page 12 of this edition, or online at www.ncbr.com under the Events heading on the lefthand side of the homepage.

Kennedy and Coe LLC, certified public accountants and consultants, is co-sponsoring this award with the Northern Colorado Business Report to recognize chief financial officers in the region whose efforts successfully navigate a company’s financial future.

“We know the past few years have been tough on businesses, but even tougher on the people whose job it is to map out a financial strategy in such uncertain times,” explained Jeff Nuttall, publisher of NCBR. “When they do their jobs well, CFOs are the unsung heroes of any organization, and this is an opportunity to sing their praises.”

CFO of the Year awards will be presented at a special breakfast during Bixpo, Northern Colorado’s premier business expo and networking event, Sept. 15 at the Embassy Suites-Loveland.

Recognition will be granted in five categories based on the size of the for-profit business and in two categories for nonprofits: Human Services and Creative Industries. And if your organization has someone who performs the functions of a CFO without the title, we still want to hear about his or her achievements.
