The South Florida Business Journal named IQ Formulations as one of just three finalists in its size category in the publication’s highly regarded Business of the Year Awards. For almost two decades, the Business Journal’s annual awards have honored the region’s top companies which set standards of excellence in their industries and build the South Florida economy through solid business practices, dedication to the community and financial growth. IQ Formulations and CEO Jay Cohen will be officially honored at an upcoming awards program at the Intercontinental Hotel in Miami on April 21, where the winners will be announced.
As a finalist for the 2016 South Florida Good to Great Awards, IQ Formulations was again one of just three companies in its category selected by the Greater Miami Chamber’s esteemed panel of judges from the business schools of Florida International University, Barry University, and Johnson & Wales University. These awards honor businesses throughout the tri-county region that have shown a pattern of transitioning from solid performance to great performance over a four-year period while demonstrating proven leadership and a solid workforce base. After being honored as a finalist at a special reception on April 7, the award winners will be named on April 28 during the South Florida Good to Great Awards Luncheon at the Rusty Pelican in Key Biscayne.
