NEW YORK, June 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ernst & Young LLP (EY US) announced that Rohit Kapoor, chairman and chief executive officer of EXL, was named an Entrepreneur Of The Year 2025 New York Award winner. Entrepreneur Of The Year is the preeminent competitive awards program for entrepreneurs and leaders of high-growth companies. For 40 years, EY US has celebrated ambitious entrepreneurs who are transforming industries, impacting communities and creating long-term value.
Kapoor was chosen by an independent panel of past winners, top CEOs and business leaders. Judges assessed candidates on long-term value creation, entrepreneurial spirit, purpose-driven commitment and significant growth and impact.
"Being named EY Entrepreneur Of The Year 2025 New York Award winner is a tremendous honor, but this award also belongs to the 60,000 employees of EXL whose hard work, commitment and relentless pursuit of excellence have always driven us forward," said Kapoor. "This recognition is a testament to the culture of innovation and entrepreneurship we've built together, and I accept it with immense gratitude."
As a New York award winner, Kapoor is now eligible for consideration for the Entrepreneur Of The Year 2025 National Awards. The National Award winners, including the Entrepreneur Of The Year National Overall Award winner, will be announced in November at the Strategic Growth Forum®, one of the nation's most prestigious gatherings of high-growth, market-leading companies. 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 2026.
Entrepreneur Of The Year recognizes many different types of business leaders for their ingenuity, courage and entrepreneurial spirit. The program celebrates original founders who bootstrapped their business from inception or who raised outside capital to grow their company; transformational CEOs who infused innovation into an existing organization to catapult its trajectory; and multigenerational family business leaders who reimagined a legacy business model to strengthen it for the future.
