Minnesota Business magazine is pleased to finally announce the winners of its 2016 (Real) Power 50 Awards. “The (Real) Power 50 is an incredible collection of influential business people,” says Minnesota Business Editor in Chief Steve LeBeau. “It is more than just an honor, because I try to pick their brains for story ideas about their industries.”


The nomination process consisted of a 3 month period where previous (Real) Power 50 members and the magazine’s Editorial Advisory board put forward names for consideration. All the nominees were then internally vetted and the 50 winners chosen. Ten names were announced each day this week, starting this past Monday.


Winners will be celebrated with an evening event to be held in one JW Marriott Minneapolis Mall of America’s beautiful Diamond Ballrooms. The night will include dinner, award presentations, entertainment and an evening of networking opportunities for all in attendance.
