The New Hampshire High Tech Council (Council) has extended the nomination and application deadline for Entrepreneur of the Year entries to April 8, according to a press statement.

Any founder, owner, or senior level manager of a business in New Hampshire who has successfully organized, developed, or managed a high technology concept into a commercial product or service may apply for the award.

For the past 27 years, the Council has celebrated innovators and leaders and their entrepreneurial pursuits through the Entrepreneur of the Year (EOY) awards program and annual event. The application and full entry requirements are available at nhhtc.org.

The winner will be announced at this year’s event on Friday, May 8 at the Radisson, Center of New Hampshire in Manchester.

The winner will also celebrate with this year’s keynote speaker Carly Fiorina, an innovator, chairman of the Unlocking Potential Project, the first woman CEO of a Fortune 50 business, and potential New Hampshire first-in-the-nation primary Republican presidential candidate. She started her career as a secretary for a small real estate business and an entry-level sales person at AT&T, shattered glass ceilings as she became a top executive at AT&T’s spin-out Lucent Technologies and its North American operations 15 years later.
