If this recognition contributes in any way to helping another person get the help they need or desire, then we have achieved the ultimate goal.” - Jeff Spight, MIND 24-7 CEO & Co-FounderSCOTTSDALE, AZ, UNITED STATES, May 10, 2023/einpresswire.com / -- Ernst & Young LLP (EY US) today announced that jeff spight , CEO of mind 24-7 , was named an entrepreneur of the year® 2023 pacific southwest award finalist. Now in its 37th year, Entrepreneur Of The Year is one of the preeminent competitive business awards for transformative entrepreneurs and leaders of high-growth companies who are building a more equitable, sustainable and prosperous world for all.
Spight was selected by an independent panel of judges. Entrepreneurs were evaluated based on their demonstration of building long-term value through entrepreneurial spirit, purpose, growth and impact, among other core contributions and attributes.
“It is an honor to be recognized among an amazing group of entrepreneurs,” Spight says.”While this is an individual recognition, my hope is that it is clear our successes are due in large part to my amazing team. And if this recognition contributes in any way to helping another person get the help they need or desire, then we have achieved the ultimate goal.”
Throughout his more than 20-year career in health care and health care management prior to co-founding MIND 24-7, Spight repeatedly came face to face with an unfortunate reality: The U.S. was failing to provide adequate access to mental health care.
