WASHINGTON, April 30, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- EY last week announced that Juan Pablo Segura, President of Babyscripts, is a finalist for the Entrepreneur Of The Year® 2019 Mid-Atlantic Award. Widely considered one of the most prestigious business awards programs in the U.S., the program recognizes entrepreneurs and leaders of high-growth companies who are excelling in areas such as innovation, financial performance and personal commitment to their businesses and communities, while also transforming our world. Segura was selected as a finalist by a panel of independent judges. Award winners will be announced at a special gala event on June 13, 2019 at the Ritz-Carlton, Washington, DC.
"It is an incredible honor to be recognized by the Entrepreneur of the Year program," said Juan Pablo Segura, President and co-founder of Babyscripts, a digital health company focused on rethinking how pregnancy care can be delivered through internet of things technology (IoT). "As a son, a brother, and now an uncle to some incredible women, when I decided to leave my promising career at Deloitte, there really was only one place to go to try to pay back the debt I owe to all the women in my life. Our goal at Babyscripts is to eliminate maternal death in this country and recognition by EY is a vote of confidence, not just to our company and vision but to the importance of all women in all of our lives."
Now in its 33rd year, the program has expanded to recognize business leaders in more than 145 cities and more than 60 countries throughout the world.
Regional award winners are eligible for consideration for the Entrepreneur Of The Year National competition. Award winners in several national categories, as well as the Entrepreneur Of The Year National Overall Award winner, will be announced at the Entrepreneur Of The Year National Awards gala in Palm Springs, California, on November 16, 2019. The awards are the culminating event of the Strategic Growth Forum®, the nation's most prestigious gathering of high-growth, market-leading companies.
