The Empact Showcase highlights the power and importance of America’s top young entrepreneurs (35 and under) and the valuable role that they play in society. The Empact Showcase celebrates the impact entrepreneurs make on the global economy and seeks to motivate aspiring entrepreneurs & connects them to role models. The official Empact100 List recognizes the top 100 of the companies within the Empact Showcase and is determined by the Empact Academy. The Empact Showcase was started in 2011. Since then, recognition events have been held at the United Nations, United States Chamber of Commerce, and the White House. In 2011 and 2012, each Empact100 honoree received a letter from President Barack Obama, congratulating them for their success and honoring them for their achievements. In 2011, the event was livestreamed on whitehouse.gov.
