Entrepreneur Of The Year is one of the preeminent competitive award programs for entrepreneurs and leaders of high-growth companies. The nominees are evaluated based on six criteria: entrepreneurial leadership; talent management; degree of difficulty; financial performance; societal impact and building a values-based company; and originality, innovation and future plans. Since its launch, the program has expanded to recognize business leaders in more than 145 cities in over 60 countries around the world.

“At Alkemy X, our core values of integrity, honesty and bravery have been the guiding forces behind our relentless continued growth and success,” notes Wineburgh. “Being named an EY Entrepreneur of the Year finalist is a testament to our ability to continue to innovate in the media and entertainment space and embrace the constantly shifting content landscape to deliver award winning work that celebrates the universally connective power of storytelling.”

The honor aligns with Alkemy X celebrating its 40th anniversary with an eye towards the future, adapting its production, original development and post production strategies to align with the drastically altered parameters spurred by the pandemic.

The boom in streaming entertainment opens up a fresh world of possibilities when it comes to exciting new original titles to follow up on the success of its reality series “Dragnificent!”, which is now streaming on Hulu and Discovery+ after a successful first season on TLC, as well as “Restaurant: Impossible” on Food Network, “Unique Rides” on Velocity, and “The 212” on Fuse.
