OUTAGAMIE COUNTY CELEBRATES TWO OF THEIR OWN

Named Insight’s 2026 40 under 40 class

Outagamie County, WI – Insight Publications has named Kevin Englebert, Development and Land Services Director and Hollie Foley, Appleton Airport’s Marketing and Brand Manager to its 2026 “40 Under 40” class—an annual recognition celebrating young professionals who are helping drive innovation and strengthen communities throughout Northeast Wisconsin.

Kevin Englebert and Hollie Foley were chosen as two of 40 honorees from more than 120 nominations submitted across the region’s 18 counties. Nominees were reviewed by a selection committee made up of past “40 Under 40” honorees and members of Insight’s editorial team, with consideration given to professional accomplishments, leadership, and civic involvement.

“Kevin and Hollie bring the kind of leadership that makes local government work better for real people—steady, smart, and service-minded,” said Outagamie County Executive Tom Nelson. “Whether it’s improving how we deliver services, strengthening partnerships, or finding practical ways to solve problems, they show up every day focused on outcomes and community trust. We’re proud to see them recognized as two of Northeast Wisconsin’s 2026 ‘40 Under 40.’”

The 2026 “40 Under 40” class will be featured in the June issue of Insight on Business magazine and honored during an awards celebration on Thursday, May 28, from 5 to 8 p.m. at Appleton Flight Center.

The event will include networking, hors d’oeuvres, and a program recognizing all honorees.
