EY Announces Chip Register of Argano as an Entrepreneur Of The Year® 2022 Central Plains Award Finalist

Celebrating ambitious pioneers tackling our biggest challenges

DALLAS May 3, 2022 – Ernst & Young LLP (EY US) today announced that Chip Register, Chief Executive Officer of Argano, LLC was named an Entrepreneur Of The Year® 2022 Central Plains Award finalist. 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.

Chip Register was 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’s a tremendous honor to be selected as finalist for this award,” said Argano CEO Chip Register. “Argano’s journey truly has been an entrepreneurial one, as we are reimagining both the client engagement delivery model and people experience in the digital services world. This journey,” Register continues, “has been loaded with innovation, and at times failure. We’re comfortable with both, as the world doesn’t need another digital services firm, it needs a pioneer to steward clients’ transformations. We do this by investing in our people, enabling them to make an impact on our clients, so they can impact the world. That’s our ethos. That’s our purpose.”

Regional award winners will be announced on June 25. The regional winners will then be considered by the National independent judging panel, and National awards will be presented 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 EY World Entrepreneur Of The Year™ Award in June 2023.

The Entrepreneur Of The Year program has recognized more than 10,000 US executives since its inception in 1986.
