Allentown, PA: Netizen Corporation’s Founder and CEO, Michael Hawkins, has been named to the “Power 100” list of the Lehigh Valley region’s most influential people by Lehigh Valley Business. According to the publication, the inaugural Power 100 list is “a showcase of power players who are leading the Greater Lehigh Valley community into the future. They are business owners, CEOs, lawyers, public servants and elected officials…who make decisions that impact lives, inspire success and spark innovation.” The Lehigh Valley is one of the fastest growing areas in Pennsylvania and the northeastern United States. With a population nearing one million people, the area has been routinely cited as a national success story for its robust growth and development.
The recipients of this prestigious award were hand selected by a special Lehigh Valley Business editorial panel who took into consideration those individuals who make our laws, build our homes and highways, protect our health and safety, educate our children, support the vulnerable, and provide the spark that inspires innovation and economic growth. An individual profile for each recipient was published in the March 29th edition of the publication both online and in print.
“I am beyond humbled to have been recognized for such a prestigious accolade and counted amongst such an incredible cohort of leaders and professionals from across this amazing region,” said Michael Hawkins. He added that Lehigh Valley Business also published a custom print and online profile for each recipient, and his can be found at https://www.lvb.com/michael-wayne-hawkins/.
