South Florida Business Leaders’ Luncheon 2026
Thank You for Supporting Seafarers’ House. May 14, 2026 | Lauderdale Yacht Club
About the Luncheon
The 27th South Florida Business Leaders’ Luncheon was held on May 14, 2026, at the Lauderdale Yacht Club. The event honored Mike Colodny, Founder & Managing Partner of Colodny Fass, and celebrated his leadership, professional excellence, and long-standing commitment to the South Florida community.
Each year, the South Florida Business Leaders’ Luncheon brings together community and business leaders to recognize an outstanding peer while supporting the mission of Seafarers’ House. This year’s luncheon continued that tradition, creating an opportunity to celebrate service, leadership, and the important role mariners play in our daily lives.
Seafarers are essential to the high quality of life we enjoy. Much of what we use, wear, and consume arrives through ships on the high seas, and Seafarers’ House remains committed to offering refuge, resources, renewal, and respect to the maritime community.
