40 under 40 (Fortune Magazine)

Fortune magazine's 40 under 40 is a list of individuals whom editors at Fortune magazine consider to be the most influential young leaders for the year. The Fortune 40 under 40 has existed in two phases: First, from 1999-2003, purely as a numeric ranking of wealth, capturing the first dot com boom. The current iteration started in 2009 and is a ranking of power and influence. The list includes business executives, political figures, sportsmen, fashion designers, and others who are under forty years old. The majority of the list members are business executives from the tech industry.

The list often features business men and women that have made their names in various industries, and does not always choose candidates from industries.
