Members of the vcfo team were honored to attend the EY Entrepreneur Of The Year® 2025 Gulf South Awards, joining a room filled with some of the most forward-looking business leaders in the region. As a Platinum Sponsor of the program, vcfo proudly stood in support of the entrepreneurs redefining standards in their industries and building lasting value across Austin, Houston, San Antonio, and beyond.

The Entrepreneur Of The Year program recognizes bold vision, relentless innovation, and measurable impact. These are qualities we admire deeply, because they’re the same qualities we aim to support in our own work. The finalists and winners of this year’s program represent businesses that are not only successful but are designed to thrive for decades to come.

“Entrepreneurs are the engine of progress,” said Ellen Wood, CEO of vcfo. “This program gives us the chance to celebrate what they’ve already built and support where they’re going next. We’re honored to be part of that.”
