The Palm Beach Ultimate CEO Awards honors ten Palm Beach CEO’s recognizing exceptional leaders who have set the standard in the corporate community, including civic leadership and charitable contributions; and for their vision, innovation and achievements.

Past recipients have included such notable CEO’s as Frank Brogan, President of Florida Atlantic University; Lewis Hay III, Chairman of the FPL Group; William Koch, CEO of Oxbow Corp.; and Paul Leone, President of The Breakers.

“I am truly honored to be included in this select group of such accomplished individuals,” says Hauptner. “We are bringing the film industry to Palm Beach County with our new sound stage and movie studios.
