SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. August 28th, 2020 – Ernst & Young LLP (EY US) today announced that Chris Ronzio, Founder and CEO of Trainual was named an Entrepreneur Of The Year® 2020 Mountain Desert Region Award finalist. Now in its 34th year, the Entrepreneur Of The Year program honors entrepreneurial business leaders whose ambitions deliver innovation, growth and prosperity as they build and sustain successful businesses that transform our world. Finalists were selected by a panel of independent judges comprised of previous award winners and other business leaders.
Award winners will be announced through a special virtual event on October 7, 2020 at 4:00 p.m. MDT and will join a lifelong community of esteemed Entrepreneur Of The Year alumni from around the world. This year, unstoppable entrepreneurs who have provided extraordinary support for their communities, employees and others during the COVID-19 crisis will also be recognized for their courage, resilience and ingenuity.
Entrepreneur Of The Year is one of the preeminent competitive award programs for entrepreneurs and leaders of high-growth companies. The nominees are evaluated based on six criteria, including overcoming adversity; financial performance; societal impact and commitment to building a values-based company; innovation; and talent management. Since its launch, the program has expanded to recognize business leaders in more than 145 cities in over 60 countries around the world.
“I'm blown away to be on this list,” said Chris Ronzio, Founder and CEO of Trainual. "I’ve been hearing about this prestigious award for so long, so it’s an incredible honor to be a part of this year’s finalist list. Even though Trainual is a few years old, I owe so much to the decades of other businesses, mentors, teachers, team members, and my family for being supportive and making this business what it’s become today. Leading this company is one of the most rewarding things I have done as an entrepreneur.”
Regional award winners are eligible for consideration for the Entrepreneur Of The Year National Awards, to be announced in November during a virtual awards gala. The Entrepreneur Of The Year National Overall Award winner will then move on to compete for the EY World Entrepreneur Of The Year™ Award in June 2021.
