Event Details

On the evening of September 18, 2018, ERC’s NorthCoast 99 program celebrated two decades of honoring best Northeast Ohio workplaces for top talent.

The 1920s-themed awards event drew nearly 900 guests to the Hilton Cleveland Downtown to recognize “Roaring Workplaces” for their exemplary human resource practices.

Early in the magical, Gatsby-inspired evening, the halls of the Hilton filled with post-Prohibition celebrants adorned in feathered headpieces, boas, pearls, fedoras, and other festive period attire. Honorees, sponsors, and special guests mingled in dazzling reception spaces and playfully posed for photo booth pictures and roaming cameras.

"Such a high-energy, high-quality production sends a great message to the community."
