KCI President Named 2026 St. Louis Titan 100 Recipient

Titan CEO and headline sponsor Wipfli are pleased to announce Tom Huster, President of KCI Construction as a 2026 St. Louis Titan 100 recipient.

The Titan 100 recognizes St. Louis’s Top 100 CEOs and C-level executives, the region’s most accomplished leaders who have not only built extraordinary companies but have redefined what it means to lead. These Titans exemplify excellence through their vision, passion, and integrity, creating lasting impact across industries and communities.

Collectively, the 2026 St. Louis Titan 100 honorees and their companies generate more than $18 billion in annual revenue and employ over 38,000 individuals across the region and beyond, with more than half exceeding $25 million in annual revenue.

“St. Louis’ Titan 100 are raising the bar for leadership across the state and beyond. With bold vision and unwavering purpose, these trailblazers are driving growth, inspiring innovation, and creating lasting impact in their industries and communities. We are proud to celebrate their leadership and the momentum they are generating for the future,” said Jaime Zawmon, President of Titan CEO.

Tom has been a leader in the St. Louis construction industry for over 25 years. He has led KCI Construction through transformative growth since becoming an owner at age 35. His steady, strategic leadership guided the company through economic downturns, expanded its self-performing capabilities, and positioned it as a regional construction powerhouse. Under Tom’s direction, revenue has more than doubled, the company entered major new markets, and in 2024 he spearheaded KCI’s transition to a 100% ESOP. He has also served on the AGCMO board for 10 years.

Spanning industries from information technology, hospital and health care, construction, manufacturing, and nonprofit leadership, this year’s Titan 100 honorees reflect the full diversity and strength of St. Louis’s business community.

Tom will be honored at the Titan 100 awards celebration on April 23rd, 2026, will be held at The Factory. This awards event will unite 100 Titans of Industry for an unforgettable evening of celebration, camaraderie, and networking—an evening unlike anything that exists in the St. Louis business community.

“On behalf of all the partners and associates at Wipfli, we congratulate all the Titan100 winners. It’s an honor to recognize this diverse group of leaders in the St. Louis community. We appreciate the lasting impact each leader has made, and continues to make, in building organizations of significance both here in St. Louis and abroad. Your ingenuity and creativity have set you apart, and the honor of being seen as an industry Titan is richly deserved,” says Adam Herman Partner at Wipfli.
