"I've never had a real job." - Steve Kokinos
That was the start of Steve Kokinos's acceptance speech last week when he was named Entrepreneur Of The Year® 2016 Award in New England by Ernst & Young. With more than 30 entrepreneurs from companies such as CarGurus, Yasso, Foodler, LivingProof, and Black Duck Software, it was an amazing night honoring ingenuity, determination, and creativity.
Steve started his first company back when he was 19 and has never worked at a company he didn't start. He acknowledged the varying states of euphoria and chaos that come along with the adventure of entrepreneurship. But he wouldn't have it any other way.
The award recognizes of Steve's commitment to excellence and extraordinary success in such areas such as innovation, financial performance, and personal commitment to the company and community.
