Celebrating those who accelerate change

Opening Message

It’s been 30 years since EY named the first winners of the Entrepreneur Of The Year™ program in the United States. Today the EOY program continues to fulfill its mission of celebrating the many business leaders who have had the audacity to transform their industries and their communities.

The EOY Mexico program was launched in 2010 to celebrate Mexico’s stories of business leadership, innovation and talent that are as exciting and inspirational as

those of any country in the world. We admire the disruptive drive of entrepreneurs who follow their dreams and leverage capabilities to create jobs, strengthen markets and positively influence society.

Entrepreneurs have also shown us that success is more rewarding when it is purpose-driven. Seeing beyond the financial incentives of entrepreneurship opens the door to new ways of seeing innovation and growth. It also strengthens our business values and leads entrepreneurs to true greatness.EY also has a purpose: to build a better working work, and it is because of this purpose that we do what we can to encourage more leaders to follow in the footsteps of these successful entrepreneurs and become the true agents of change that we need today.

At EY we believe that

transforming the status

every aspect of our

surroundings by asking

thought-provoking questions that compel

us to find better answers that spark

transformation.

Disruption prompts collaboration and

learning and generates fresh viewpoints.

This is why we have created a space for

sharing insights through videos, articles,

30 years globally7 years in Mexico

Economic innovation and dynamism is largely born out of the creative energy and tenacity of entrepreneurial talent. The way that entrepreneurs strive to create business models that challenge the common market

wisdom and forge their own path to success is something to be celebrated. It was this idea that lead to the creation of the EY Entrepreneur Of The Year™ (EOY) program, which unlike other business award programs, doesn’t just celebrate new businesses that are disrupting the status quo, but also honors the business leaders who had the vision for the new business and the audacity to turn it into reality.

The EY Entrepreneur Of The Year program was launched 30 years ago in the United States and it is currently held in more than 60 countries worldwide where EY does business. The first edition of the EOY program in Mexico was held in 2010 and since that time the EY Entrepreneur Of The Year™ (EOY) Mexico program has become a distinguished space for honoring the many business leaders and entrepreneurs of today who strive to innovate, who fuel the economy, and who generate most of the country’s new jobs.

In the seven years that the program has been held in Mexico, EY has received more than 900 nominations through its nationwide public call for nominations and it has named 260 finalists from a total of 218 companies. Among other requirements, finalist companies need to have been operating in the market for at least three years and they also need to report annual sales of at least 25 million Mexican pesos.After successful completion of the documentation and interview stage of the program, candidates are evaluated by a panel of independent judges comprised of prominent academics, business leaders and active members of the business community, who conduct a comprehensive evaluation of the nominated business, the entrepreneur’s background, and

Social responsibility: Policies and initiatives benefiting both business and community

Many of the finalists of the past editions of the EY Entrepreneur Of The Year Mexico program lead some of today’s most dynamic companies, including Banco Compartamos, Distrolter, Africam Safari, Banco BASE, Hoteles Marquis, Volaris, Ingenia Muebles, Gonher, Café Punta del Cielo, Genomma Lab Internacional, Kidzania, El Bajío, Alazraki Films, Monte Xanic, Los Danzantes, Mister Tennis, Hoteles City, Tanya Moss, FINSA, HELVEX, Unifin Financiera, Daniel Espinosa Jewelry, IOS Offices, Grupo Fuflsand, Pack2go Logistics, Grupo Anderson’s, Devfyn, Natgas, Mamma Bella, and more.

The entrepreneur who the panel of judges eventually names the winner of the Consolidated category will becomes the National Winner and will go on to represent Mexico at the EY World Entrepreneur Of The Year event that is held each year in Monte Carlo, Monaco. In addition to attending a series of conferences and panels on topics of interest, the winners from each country also participate in work sessions as they enjoy ongoing networking opportunities and gain international media exposure. The event culminates with the announcement of the

World Entrepreneur of the Year selected by the panel of judges.The past National Winners of the EY Entrepreneur Of The Year Mexico program include:

One of the ongoing benefits for entrepreneurs who participate in the EOY program is that they are included in EY’s global studies of market trends and perspectives on the future, which provide critical to insight to help business leaders make better decisions. Some of the program’s past entrepreneurs have had the opportunity to share their experiences through a number of dynamic venues, including the Strategic Growth Forum™, and they continue to enjoy continued access to a number of global contact networks, such as the EY Global Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation.

The EY Entrepreneur Of The Year program is the perfect platform for fomenting dialogue and collaboration among the key players of Mexico’s business ecosystem, as it also inspires a new generation of entrepreneurs to enable their innovative sprits to transform their businesses and their communities. EY believes in the power of entrepreneurship to change the world and celebrating the achievements of these daring business leaders is one of the ways we are fulfilling our aim of building a better working world.

A clear vision:

Creating lifelong

According to Frank Devlyn, Chairman of the Board of Devlyn Holding and Grupo Devlyn, Ópticas Devlyn has become the industry leader in Mexico by getting to know its customers and turning them

into lifelong patrons.

A keen believer in healthy competition as a force for reaching new heights day in and day out, Frank credits each of the 5,000 employees at Devlyn’s 200 branches as being critical to the company’s success.

Frank Devlyn started working at his family’s small business at the age of 22. Thanks to Frank’s hard work and the unyielding support of his mother and brothers, Jesse and Patricio, he was able to grow Devlyn into a cross-border business. Today the Devlyn Group has branches in Guatemala, El Salvador and the United States.

Although Frank’s story is one of unrivaled business success, he sees his work with the civic organizations that he is associated with as being just as important as his professional accomplishments. Frank has received many national and international awards, including the awards given to him by The Rotary Foundation in recognition of his work promoting Rotary International programs around the world. In addition, Frank will represent Mexico at the EY Entrepreneur Of The Year ™ 2017 Forum that will be held in Monte Carlo in 2017, where he will have the opportunity to tell his story and showcase his business model.

Devlyn FoundationThe Devlyn Foundation was created to contribute to the improvement of the quality of life of the most underprivileged members of society through four separate assistance programs:

Giving the gift of good vision. Through this program, the foundation repairs

glasses donated by customers, companies and suppliers and delivers them to low-income families at its so-called “sight drives”.

Rounding Up. Through the Rounding Up program, the Devlyn Foundation is able to collect

donations in alliance with other social organizations through Grupo Devlyn’s 800 plus branches.

2020 Vision. This program was launched in October 2010 as part of the World Sight Day and its aim is to raise awareness regarding the importance of eye screening as a means for promptly detecting vision problems.

Education. The purpose of this program is to support the development of the eye care field by equipping and conditioning the teaching facilities of some of Mexico’s most prestigious universities.

“I want to congratulate EY for inspiring so many entrepreneurs to continue the fight. EY is a prime example of a progressive company.” Frank Devlyn

Frank Devlyn, the National Winner of the EY Entrepreneur Of The Year ™ Mexico 2016 program, is a business leader who has brought his 80-year old company to new heights by constantly innovating to find new ways to meet the needs of his customers.

Expanding business Winner


Innovating to be better

José Norberto León Quintero expressed his gratitude to everyone who has supported him on the road to business success and to EY for having created the EOY program and giving him the opportunity to

participate. He also had a message for young people with an entrepreneurial mindset: “Think a lot about the future and about technology. Big changes will come and revolutionize all industries. I am in the medical services business and in 10 years my industry will be completely different than it is now and this is why we need to work hard today.”

Hospital San Javier Guadalajara first opened its doors 20 years ago and since that time it has been unyielding in its commitment to providing medical services following the highest quality standards and using the most cutting-edge medical technology.

Since 1994, José Norberto has lead this cutting-edge comprehensive health solution provider. The San Javier group currently operates four hospitals across a network of 5,000 doctors. For the past 13 years it has been certified as a specialty hospital by Mexico’s General Health Council.

Hospital San Javier is the first private hospital in Latin America to provide no-scalpel brain radiosurgery though its Gamm Knife Unit and it is also the first hospital in western Mexico to be certified as a Specialty Hospital.

“Innovation isn’t just about buying new equipment; it’s about providing the service, investing in innovative human capital, finding new ways of doing things, and leading the way for the next generation to succeed.” José Norberto León Quintero

José Norberto León Quintero, winner of the EY Entrepreneur Of The Year ™ 2016 award in the Expanding Business category, directs Hospital San Javier, which is a leader in innovation in hospital services in Mexico.

Knowing how to share


Marisa’s most rewarding achievement:

TThis highly successful baked goods company currently distributes its products through 37 points of sale and

it maintains a number of production facilities where teams of mostly female culinary artisans create all of the company’s products. “We want to be your favorite cake shop. We want to be there with you during life’s most special moments and to actively engage in our communities,” says Marisa.

Even as Pastelerías Marisa continues to grow, the company’s cakes, cookies and gelatin dishes have never lost their homemade appeal and this has helped Pastelerías Marisa become a favorite brand name of countless Mexican families.

As a result of Marisa’s quest to find new ways to grow Pastelerías Marisa, she recently added the Dolce Natura ice cream brand to the company’s range of products.

Sonrisas MarisaDriven by Marisa’s desire to give back to the community, Sonrisas Marisa was launched in 2015 with the goal of giving away cakes and sharing more with the underprivileged.

“It has been a joy for me to participate in the EY Entrepreneur Of

The Year program. I am impressed by the quality of this event and by

the quality of the judges, and by how much I have learned along

the way. I simply love how EY celebrates entrepreneurship though

the program. Mexico needs more entrepreneurs. We need to inspire

more people to work hard to innovate and to build new businesses.”

Un total de 24 emprendedo-res lograron ser selecciona-dos como finalistas del EY Entrepreneur Of The Year 2016 México.

Ahora una de sus metas será el lograr convertirse en el ganador que represente a México en el premio EY World Entrepreneur Of The Year 2017 que se celebrará en Mónaco y donde participan empresarios de 60 países.

Los seleccionados han generado 20 empresas en diversas industrias, princi-palmente servicios de tecno-logía y de energía, bienes raí-ces, hotelería y construcción.

Además de automotriz y transporte, servicios y consu-mo, servicios financieros y de salud y medios de comuni-cación y entretenimiento; en conjunto generan 9 mil 500 millones de pesos en ventas y empleo para más de 12 mil personas en el País.

“Nuestros seleccionados son ejemplo de lo que se pue-de lograr al trabajar con un propósito más allá del benefi-cio económico. Reconocemos a los empresarios que se han esforzado por ser innovado-res y disruptivos”, dijo Fran-cisco Álvarez, director de EY México y Centroamérica.

Insistió en que en su sép-tima edición en México, el premio EY Entrepreneur Of The Year busca que más em-prendedores se sientan inspi-rados y su talento permita re-definir el futuro del País.

“Nos aseguramos de que (los seleccionados) sean em-presarios que puedan compe-tir a nivel global, que tengan propósito y visión hacia ade-lante”, agregó.

Tres ganadores del pre-mio en ediciones anteriores fungirán como jueces: Sergio Argüelles, director general de FINSA Lorenzo Barrera, di-rector general de Banco BA-SE; y Rodrigo Lebois, presi-dente de Unifin Financiera. Rafael Gómez Nava, director general del IPADE, y Raúl Ferráez Pérez Pascal, director de Líderes Mexicanos, com-pletarán el equipo que selec-cionará al EY Entrepreneur Of The Year 2016 México.

Entre los emprendedores seleccionados destaca que 25 por ciento han recibido apo-yo de aceleradoras y 15 por ciento ha recibido recursos de fondos de capital privado.

El 55 por ciento de em-presas fundadas por los se-leccionados son familiares, la más joven tiene apenas tres años y la de mayor trayecto-ria suma 80 años de historia. Los emprendedores, por su parte, tienen entre 30 y 76 años de edad.

En la edición del EY En-trepreneur Of The Year 2016 participan empresarios de la Ciudad de México, Jalis-co, Nuevo León, Estado de México, Puebla, Querétaro, Quintana Roo, Veracruz y Yucatán.

El ganador se dará a co-nocer en septiembre de es-te año.

Frank J. Devlyn, presidente de Ópticas Devlyn, una empresa que abre 30 ópticas cada año, que inició operaciones en 1936, destacó que cuidar a los clien-tes es básico.

“Ganar a los clientes de por vida es básico para mí”, afirmó el finalista de EY Entrepreneur of the Year.

“Devlyn ha cambiado con los tiempos, yo nunca pen-sé que iba a ser ‘fashion’, a la gente le gusta la moda.

“En la parte científica, ¿quién iba a pensar que íba-mos a tener unos aparatos o una computadora que iba a sacar la graduación?, lo que hace a Devlyn es toda la gente que se ha puesto la camiseta”, aseguró.

Roberto Bischoff, director ge-neral de Braskem Idesa -la compañía que lidera el proyec-to Etileno XXI- comentó que ganaron la subasta, gracias a la decisión del Gobierno de reactivar la petroquímica.

“Las nuevas inversiones pasan, ocurren en lugares donde hay disponibilidad de

materia prima competitiva capaz de atraer inversiones”, mencionó el finalista del reco-nocimiento EY Entrepreneur of the Year.

“Todo inició con la decisión política de México de ofrecer una subasta a más de 30 em-presas internacionales por un contrato de 20 años de etano, que es la materia prima del polietileno”, agregó.
