MALVERN, PA — Domenic Colasante, the CEO of the marketing firm 2X, has been announced as a finalist for the prestigious Ernst & Young LLP (EY US) Entrepreneur Of The Year® 2024 Greater Philadelphia Award. This distinction places Colasante among a select group of business leaders recognized for their innovative contributions to their industries and the broader economy.
The Entrepreneur Of The Year® program, now in its 38th year, stands as a testament to the spirit of innovation and leadership that drives market disruption and sector revolutionization. Celebrating the audacity of individuals who have demonstrated an ability to transform bold ideas into tangible impacts on society, this award has, over four decades, become a beacon for entrepreneurial success and ingenuity.
Colasante, among 30 regional entrepreneurs chosen by an independent judging panel, was evaluated across several criteria, including entrepreneurial spirit, purpose-driven leadership, growth, and societal impact. His selection underscores the significant strides taken under his leadership at 2X, particularly in forging trusting relationships with industry-leading marketers and steering the company towards remarkable achievements.
Expressing gratitude for the honor, Colasante remarked on the privilege of leading 2X and the importance of the collaborative effort in reaching this milestone. “I am truly humbled by the recognition of being named a finalist…It’s an honor to stand among a select group of bold leaders,” he stated, highlighting the collective endeavor of his team and supporters in realizing their shared vision.
The Entrepreneur Of The Year® program not only celebrates the achievements of singular founders and visionary CEOs but also acknowledges the broader contributions of these leaders in propelling innovation, fostering economic growth, and enhancing societal well-being. These business leaders have either bootstrapped their companies from the ground up or significantly redefined the trajectories of existing organizations through innovative strategies.
With regional winners set to be announced on June 6, Colasante enters an elite circle of entrepreneurs who will vie for national recognition at the Entrepreneur Of The Year® National Awards. This ceremony is part of the annual Strategic Growth Forum®, a gathering that convenes the nation’s most distinguished high-growth, market-leading companies.
This recognition for Colasante, and by extension, 2X, highlights the potential for visionary leadership to not only disrupt markets but to also forge paths that others might follow, setting new standards in entrepreneurship. The anticipation now builds for the regional awards ceremony, where Colasante’s contributions will be celebrated alongside his peers, marking another chapter in the storied history of the Entrepreneur Of The Year® program.
