MCLEAN, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dovel Technologies, a leading expert to federal agencies that blends deep domain expertise and advanced technologies in the health IT, life sciences, public safety, and grants management markets, announced today that Damon Griggs, Dovel CEO, has been named an Ernst & Young LLP (EY US) Entrepreneur Of The Year® 2021 Mid-Atlantic Award winner.
“I am humbled and honored to be included in such a well-respected and distinguished list of forward-thinking leaders,” said Griggs. “This is a reflection of what the entire team has accomplished. Each and every employee has contributed to Dovel’s success. Their tireless commitment to supporting our customers’ missions that improve, protect, and save lives is what fuels our growth and my passion for leading this amazing team.”
Dovel continues to see impressive growth, scaling to a competitive mid-size company with Griggs at the helm. Never losing sight of Dovel’s foundation of agility, customer focus, and responsiveness, Griggs has surrounded himself with a high-quality leadership team that brings complementary strengths in support of identifying opportunities in the market, expanding the Company’s offerings for employees and customers, and advancing his vision of making an impact. Over the last year, the world has been so heavily impacted by COVID-19, and Dovel is proud to support many critical public health programs across the health continuum to improve outcomes, quality, safety, efficacy, and compliance.
“It has been a pleasure working with Damon as he leads Dovel’s strategy that focuses on innovation, customer success, and employee growth,” said Sudhakar Kesavan, Dovel Chairman of the Board. “His entrepreneurial acumen, drive, and people skills have helped Dovel grow by attracting top talent to the company. Dovel is delivering solutions that solve the government’s most complex challenges and truly have a positive impact on society.”
Since 1986, EY US has honored entrepreneurs whose ingenuity, spirit of innovation, and tenacity have driven their companies’ success, transformed their industries, and made a positive impact on their communities.
