CHICAGO (April 29, 2012) — Enova’s new CEO David Fisher was named to Techweek Chicago’s 100 to Watch in anticipation of the upcoming Techweek conference June 27-29 at Chicago’s Merchandise Mart.

The Techweek100 identifies those Chicago individuals who are impacting the business and technology landscape on a significant scale. The Techweek100 includes those managing fast-growing technology companies, prominent sector investors, key contributing enablers of the digital ecosystem, those at the forefront of creating new technology platforms, and other innovators that bring surprising new ideas to an expanding field. The Techweek100 is not a ranking but rather a list of 100 technology leaders chosen by the Techweek community, Techweek Advisory Boards, and Techweek team.

Others on this year’s list:  Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel; Brandon Cruz, founder of GoHealth; Maria Christopoulos Katris, CEO of Built In Chicago; and, John Pletz, technology writer for Crain’s Chicago Business.
