Induction into the Entrepreneur and Business Hall of Fame is Huizenga College of Business & Entrepreneurship’s highest honor.

Founded in 1990, the Hall of Fame recognizes and celebrates the lifetime achievements of a distinguished cadre of influential leaders, all of whose business efforts benefit and leave a lasting imprint on South Florida’s entrepreneurship community.

Our outstanding honorees have exhibited leadership by giving of their time and resources with the aim of enhancing the quality of life for others. In short, these exceptional entrepreneurs embody the very qualities our college’s namesake, H. Wayne Huizenga, exemplifies and envisioned fostering in each and every one of our students to become a difference maker.
