Coley and Ryan Brady, brothers and founders of Elkhart, Indiana-based Alliance RV, have been named Entrepreneurs of the Year in the Midwest division by Ernst & Young.
The Midwest division includes Illinois, Indiana and Wisconsin. Entrepreneur of the Year is one of the preeminent competitive business awards for entrepreneurs and leaders of high-growth companies who think big to succeed, the organization said. This group of esteemed entrepreneurial leaders was selected by an independent judging panel comprised of award alumni, leading CEOs, investors and other regional business leaders.
“EY has honored the curiosity, ingenuity, courage and drive of unstoppable entrepreneurs since 1986, and we are proud to continue the tradition again this year by celebrating this outstanding group of leaders,” said Ram Ramanan, Midwest program director. “Each of these entrepreneurs has persevered to make their visions become a reality, and I have no doubt that they will benefit from and serve as valuable members of our global Entrepreneur of the Year community.”
Counting the two Brady’s, there were 10 winners in all from the Midwest. As regional winners, all will be considered by the national judges for the Entrepreneur of the Year 2022 National Awards, which will be presented in November at the annual Strategic Growth Forum. 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 2023.
