The Delaware State Chamber of Commerce awarded the Marvin S. Gilman Bowl to Don Fulton, managing partner of George J. Weiner Associates, Wilmington, on Wednesday at the 15th Annual Marvin S. Gilman Superstars in Business Awards program. Fulton accepted the award with his daughters and granddaughters in attendance.

The event, held at the Hotel du Pont’s Gold Ballroom, also honored eight outstanding companies as Superstars in Business and Award of Excellence winners. The program included video tributes to the Superstars in Business award winners, as well as keynote remarks by Frank and Donna Masley, the husband-and-wife team behind Masley Enterprises.

The Gilman Bowl was established as a tribute to small business leadership. It is named in memory of Marvin S. Gilman, a home-builder and community leader in Delaware. The identity of the winners of the Gilman Bowl is kept secret until the presentation at the awards luncheon.

Fulton began a long career in finance in 1974, and joined George J. Weiner Associates in 1989.

Fulton qualifies annually for New York Life’s Executive Council, the Million Dollar Round Table and the National Quality and National Sales Achievement Awards. He is heavily involved with the National Association of Insurance and Financial Advisors, a past president of the Delaware Chapter of the Society of Financial Services Professionals, and a longtime member of the DSCC’s Small Business Alliance.
