Time flies when you’re having fun. Just ask Frank G. Cannata who founded The Cannata Report 40 years ago this year. What an incredible journey it’s been and in celebration of this occasion, we are proud to present a special 40th Anniversary issue featuring content that reflects on our 40-year history as well as our current industry coverage that you’ll find in every issue. The centerpiece of the issue is The Cannata Report Top 40, Editor-in-Chief Scott Cullen’s recap of our survey of industry leaders who helped us identify the most influential industry trends, developments, product introductions, and events of the past 40 years. It’s quite the list and should serve as a trip down memory lane for many of our readers.
In this issue, you’ll also find my article, Record Highs where I look back at my nine years with The Cannata Report and identify what’s impacted me the most during my short time in this industry. Additional compelling content in the May issue includes:
