THE EXCELLENCE IN ENTREPRENEURSHIP AWARDS PROGRAM is designed to recognize individuals who exemplify the American entrepreneurial spirit – individuals who, by their creativity and determination, have established and nurtured successful business ventures. Entrepreneurs are a powerful economic force, especially in a down market. More than half of the companies on the 2009 Fortune 500 list were launched during a recession or bear market, pointing to the fact that new firms generate jobs and promote growth in the economy (http://www. entrepreneurship.gov). This is the perfect opportunity to recognize clients or business associates who have distinguished themselves by their foresight, determination and accomplishments.

Nominators’ names and companies will be included in the Orange County Business Journal’s EIE Awards Advertising Supplement, which will be published on March 5, 2012. Self-nominations are welcome.
