Entrepreneur Of The Year Nominations Accepted

March 07, 1997

Nominations are being accepted through April 4 for the annual Entrepreneur Of The Year awards. Nominees must be owners/managers primarily responsible for the recent performance of a company that is at least two years old. Founders of public companies are also eligible provided the founder is still active in upper management.

Regional award recipients will be selected in several award categories by independent judging panels and presentations will be made at 46 regional award banquets in June. A national judging panel will choose finalists and award recipients for five National awards and The Entrepreneur Of The Year award. All regional award recipients are eligible, including those from previous years.

The awards are sponsored nationally by the Entrepreneur Of The Year Institute, Ernst & Young LLP, the Center for Entrepreneurial Leadership Inc. at the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation, USA TODAY, and the Nasdaq Stock Market. For more information, call 1-800-755-AWARD (2927).
