Back in November, HostDime founder and CEO Manny Vivar had the honor of receiving the Entrepreneurial Vanguard Award at the prestigious Mid-Florida Business Hall of Fame at Full Sail University.
The Entrepreneurial Vanguard Award by the Junior Achievement of Central Florida distinguishes an entrepreneur whose vision and courage built a lasting business right here in Central Florida. This award honors an entrepreneur who is ensuring the success of private enterprise in Orlando and has created a local company that has lasted at least ten years.
We offer our heartfelt congratulations to our fellow honorees. There was a large pool of candidates to choose from; these individuals must demonstrate:
- Successful entrepreneurial endeavors
- Innovative thinking and vision
- Commitment and courage to develop new ideas
- Inspiring leadership within their business
- Community-mindedness
- Excellent moral character
- Serve as role model for those who follow
“I was beyond humbled to be awarded the 2022 Entrepreneurial Vanguard Award by Junior Achievement of Central Florida. Seeing the list of previous inductees years before me inspires me to continue my passion for technology in the Central Florida area to inspire the youth. I promise to pay it forward by passing the knowledge to inspire the next generation. This is why in our new Tier IV Orlando Data Center we are putting an internet museum and a STEM lab. We look forward to building a curriculum with all local schools in the area to begin our journey of inspiring the next generation.” – Manny Vivar, CEO and founder of HostDime Global
