Roth Capital Partners announced that its Executive Chairman, Byron Roth, has been selected to receive the prestigious Horatio Alger Award and will become a lifetime member of the Horatio Alger Association of Distinguished Americans as part of the 2026 class of honorees. The award recognizes leaders who have achieved notable success despite adversity and who demonstrate a sustained commitment to higher education and philanthropy. Roth was cited for his journey from a rural Mennonite farming community in Iowa to building Roth Capital Partners into a leading investment bank, as well as for his long-standing support of educational, youth development, and charitable initiatives.

The Horatio Alger Association of Distinguished Americans, Inc., founded in 1947, upholds the belief that hard work, honesty, and determination enable individuals to overcome adversity and achieve success. The Association honors exceptional leaders who exemplify this spirit by presenting them with the Horatio Alger Award and inducting them as lifetime members. Through the support of its members and friends, the Association helps promising students to pursue their dreams through higher education. In 2026, the Association has budgeted to award $19 million in need-based scholarships to up to 1,800 students across the United States and Canada, along with academic, personal, and professional support services. Over the past 41 years, the Association has awarded more than $275 million in scholarships to more than 38,000 deserving students. For more information, visit https://www.horatioalger.org.
