ROCHELLE PARK, N.J., June 19, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Ernst & Young LLP (EY US) announced that Hannah Testani, CEO of Intelligent Audit, was named an Entrepreneur Of The Year® 2023 New Jersey Award winner. The Entrepreneur Of The Year Awards program is one of the preeminent competitive awards for entrepreneurs and leaders of high-growth companies. An independent judging panel made up of previous award winners, leading CEOs, investors and other regional business leaders selected Mrs. Testani among 10 other winners. The candidates were evaluated based on their demonstration of building long-term value through entrepreneurial spirit, purpose, growth and impact, among other core contributions and attributes.

"Being included among the many impressive finalists in the New Jersey area was an honor in itself," said Testani. "Winning the prestigious EY Entrepreneur Of The Year award is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the Intelligent Audit team. Our growth and success over the past year would not have been possible without our team's commitment to developing a better, more robust solution for our customers."

Under Testani's leadership, Intelligent Audit is revolutionizing the logistics industry by deploying big data and machine learning to identify shipping anomalies and optimize customer logistics processes worldwide. The company has seen tremendous growth and success, marked by continuous investment in technology and a culture of innovation, leading the way towards a more efficient and cost-effective supply chain.
