EY US celebrates ambitious entrepreneurs shaping the future of business

CARLSBAD, CA, UNITED STATES, April 22, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Bradley H. Feldmann, Chairman and CEO of Neology, has been named a finalist for the Entrepreneur Of The Year 2026 Pacific Southwest Award by Ernst & Young LLP (EY US). Now in its 41st year, the Entrepreneur Of The Year program celebrates the bold leaders who disrupt markets through the world’s most ground-breaking companies, revolutionizing industries and uplifting communities. The program honors entrepreneurs whose innovations drive economic growth and help shape the future of business.

An independent panel of judges selected Bradley based on their entrepreneurial spirit, purpose, company growth and lasting impact in building long-term value.

“This recognition is meaningful because it represents the progress Neology has made as a team,” Bradley H. Feldmann said. “We’ve challenged ourselves to think bigger, move faster, and stay focused on building mobility solutions that truly serve communities. I’m proud of what our people have accomplished and grateful to our customers and partners who continue to put their confidence in us.”

Founded in 1998, Neology is a global smart mobility technology company delivering AI‑driven tolling, automated vehicle identification, digital payments, and open‑platform mobility solutions. The company partners with transportation agencies, roadway operators, and governments worldwide to modernize infrastructure, improve safety, and enable more efficient, data‑driven mobility systems across North America, Latin America, Europe, and Asia‑Pacific.

Entrepreneur Of The Year honors 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.

This year’s Pacific Southwest finalists represent Southern California (San Diego and Orange County), Arizona, and Nevada across all industries.

Regional award winners will be announced on June 6, 2026 during a special celebration in Orange County and will become lifetime members of an esteemed community of Entrepreneur Of The Year alumni from around the world.
