The Regional Chamber will host its fourth annual Arcus Awards, presented by RubinBrown LLP, next month. As it does every year, the event will honor 56 companies, organizations and institutions who “make St. Louis a more attractive place to live, work, and invest.” The Arcus Awards align with the St. Louis Regional Chamber’s three-pronged strategy to leverage economic strengths, create economic opportunity and advocate forward-thinking economic policy.

The Arcus Award finalists were just announced, and the startup and innovation community makes another strong showing on this year’s list. The award winners will be revealed live on stage at February 23, 2017 at the Hyatt Regency St. Louis at the Arch.
