Crain’s Chicago has named QuesTek Innovations CFO Brian Registe a Notable Black Leader. This annual award recognizes top Black leaders in the Chicago area who have significant industry accomplishments and hold a leadership role in industry or community organizations.

Crain’s notes that the people included in the list “represent all industries and communities: C-suite executives and investors handling multimillion-dollar budgets and billion-dollar deals, advisers helping our neighbors pursue higher education and secure social services, attorneys leading law firms and advocates leading the way toward change. From magnates to mentors, they’re working to enrich their companies, our communities and our city.”

Brian has been CFO of QuesTek for over two years. During that time, he has led the business’ organizational transition as it has expanded its revenue streams by developing and launching ICMD®, the company’s first software as a service (SaaS) product. Brian was instrumental in building the team and creating the strategy to launch this first-of-its-kind software. 

Brian’s experience leading companies through growth and his passion for taking on challenges make him a perfect fit to oversee the business operations team at QuesTek, including finance and accounting, human resources, IT, legal and facilities. 

He is also a driving force in QuesTek community engagement initiatives, including career programs and visits to local schools like the Chicago Tech Academy.
