Vice, who serves as Chief Executive Officer of Sierra Space, was selected by an independent judging panel made up of previous award winners, leading CEOs and other business leaders. Candidates were evaluated based on their ability to create long-term value through entrepreneurial spirit, commitment to their purpose and the demonstration of growth and substantial impact, among other key indicators.

Vice thanked EY organizers and the judges during his acceptance speech at a live celebration event at The Broadmoor in Colorado Springs on Saturday and focused his remarks on the incredible work of the men and women of Sierra Space.

“I want to express my gratitude to our remarkable Sierra Space team. We are dreamers, bold thinkers and bold doers. We talk a lot about the fact that we’re building a platform in space to benefit the lives of eight billion people here on Earth. It’s really challenging and takes a dedicated team,” Vice added. “Thank you to our entire team for your unwavering commitment to our mission, your dedication to building a great company and your passion for changing the course of humanity for generations to come.”

EY’s Entrepreneur Of The Year is the preeminent competitive awards program for entrepreneurs and leaders of high-growth companies. As a Mountain West award winner, Vice is now eligible for consideration for the Entrepreneur Of The Year 2024 National Awards. The National Award winners, including the Entrepreneur Of The Year National Overall Award winner, will be announced in November at the Strategic Growth Forum®, one of the nation’s most prestigious gatherings of high-growth, market-leading companies. The Entrepreneur Of The Year National Overall Award winner will then move on to compete for the World Entrepreneur Of The Year® Award in June 2025.

Entrepreneur Of The Year recognizes many different types of 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 fortify it for the future.
