CARY, N.C. , May 16, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Ernst & Young LLP (EY US) today announced that Milind Bagade, Co-Founder & CEO, and Sayam Bagade, Co-founder & COO, of e-Emphasys Technologies, Inc. were named Entrepreneur Of The Year^® 2022 Southeast Award finalists. Entrepreneur Of The Year is one of the preeminent competitive business awards for entrepreneurs and leaders of high-growth companies who think big to succeed.

Milind and Sayam were selected by a panel of independent judges according to the following criteria – entrepreneurial spirit, purpose, growth and impact – among other core contributions and attributes.

"It is a privilege to be recognized as a finalist for this most prestigious award, and an honor to be named alongside other highly talented and successful individuals," said Sayam Bagade, Co-founder and COO. "This recognition is a testament to the dedication, professionalism, and social awareness demonstrated by our global team of 460+ passionate team members, the real heroes!"

e-Emphasys Technologies has experienced tremendous growth over the years, becoming one of the fastest growing enterprise software providers in the equipment distribution and rental industry. The fully integrated cloud platform is deployed at some of the world's leading companies, helping them to streamline processes, improve customer service, and better leverage data and analytics to positively impact operations.

"We are overwhelmed to be the recognition by Ernst & Young. There are so many people to thank along the way, but e-Emphasys' success is truly driven by our employees," said Milind Bagade, Co-founder and CEO. "We were convinced that the equipment distribution and rental industry held tremendous opportunities for digitization and process improvements that could be driven by the lessons learned in the maufacturing industry. Our goal was to be a complete Digital Transformation partner for our customers, providing a comprehensive, modern enterprise platform that would connect every level of their business through automation of workflows and better integration with key business partners such as OEM's. We're extremely proud to bring innovations such as Artificial Intelligence and Augmented Reality to the industry, leveraging IoT data to improve service levels and utilization of equipment.
