(Monday, August 17, 2015) Daniel Gallagher, National Sales Manager, Meet AC and the Atlantic City Sports Commission, was recognized as an industry leader in Connect Magazine’s “40 Under 40” feature in the August/September 2015 issue. Connect Magazine is a national, B2B magazine that provides resources and ideas to planners in the association and specialty meetings industry.

Nominations were received from across the country, then reviewed and evaluated by the Connect editorial staff based on references, industry involvement and other resources. An annual feature in Connect Magazine, “40 Under 40” is neither driven by advertising nor is it connected with any promotional contest.
