Once again, the selection of this year’s Ernst & Young Entrepreneurs of the Year started with hundreds of suggestions, which in turn led to dozens of detailed and formal nominations. After site visits and interviews by the panel of judges, the field was narrowed to 19 finalists representing 18 companies. From this group came this year’s seven award recipients. The competition, as always, was intense—the judges had a challenging time determining this year’s winners.
On the pages below, you’ll meet
both the winners and the rest of the finalists. All of these entrepreneurs have
successfully built businesses, often overcoming major obstacles. All have
displayed the perseverance, vision, drive, and leadership that it takes to build
not only a growing business but a lasting one.
