Conway Center members were invited to participate in the Family Business Expo preceding the Awards luncheon, providing them the opportunity to showcase their business, products, or services to hundreds of family business leaders and advisors. VIEW the directory of Expo participants.
The Awards luncheon honored recipients in categories consistent with the success and longevity of a family business: leadership, planning, communication, support and community service.
Thank you to our generous Award Sponsors: Columbus CEO, First Merchants, Gryphon Financial Partners, Taft/ and to our Media Sponsors: Morgan Stanley and Rider+Reinke Financial Group.

- Found a unique solution to a complex business problem
- Made a contribution to our community
- Gone above and beyond the call of duty to help an employee, customer or vendor
