Make Your Mark—Get Featured This October

Across South Florida, standout men are reimagining the way we do business—launching companies, refining strategy, leading with purpose, and shaping the industries of tomorrow. These innovators aren’t just keeping up with the pace of change—they’re setting it. And now, it’s time to recognize the impact they’re making.

Lifestyle and South Florida Business & Wealth will honor these forward-thinking leaders in our October issues with Men of Influence & Innovation, a special section spotlighting the visionaries turning ideas into action across the tri-county region.

Each featured professional will be profiled in print and online—and invited to an exclusive networking event and celebration alongside fellow changemakers and local leaders.

Part of the award-winning Lifestyle Media Group portfolio, Lifestyle and SFBW reach the region’s most affluent readers and influential voices across Broward, Miami-Dade, and Palm Beach counties.

Want to be featured? Contact Michelle Simon at [email protected] for more details.
