How the Winners
Were Chosen
The Ey Entrepreneur Of The year is an
annual global awards program administered
by Ernst & Young (EY). Canada's Pacic
Region program is overseen by EY, which
selects judges from among business leaders
and past
EOY winners. Judges evaluate the
nominees based on several factors, includ-
ing vision, leadership, innovation, nancial
performance and social responsibility. The
Pacic Region overall winner is one of ve
regional winners who compete for Canada's
EY Entrepreneur Of The Year; the Canadian
winner advances to an annual competition,
held in Monte Carlo, that sees World Entre-
preneur Of The Year chosen from among 60
country winners. Details of the nomination
process and judging criteria are available at
ey.com/ca/
EOY. Nominations are accepted
year-round.‰Š
