EY Announces Reed J. Seaton of Hellas Construction Entrepreneur Of The Year® 2018 Award Finalist in Central Texas Region

"I am grateful and honored to be nominated alongside such an impressive group of entrepreneurs. I'm sure we can all appreciate the journey that brought us here.  My professional success at Hellas is truly defined by the people that have worked alongside me these past fifteen years. The people that show up, the people that care, the people that work hard sometimes long hours away from their families to do what we do; the people that do whatever it takes to get those stadium fields, tracks, courts, sports facilities built for their families, friends, communities and those all over the U.S. are the reason for Hellas' unprecedented success," Seaton said.

"I can only take credit for having recognized and selected a stellar Hellas team in every single department comprised of extraordinarily dedicated and driven individuals. These individuals have collectively achieved the fastest growing, most successful facility construction and sports surfaces company in the history of our industry."

Hellas Construction is one of the largest and only vertically-integrated sports construction companies in the United States, serving schools and universities nationwide since 2003, along with such NFL teams as the Dallas Cowboys, Houston Texans, Miami Dolphins, and Jacksonville Jaguars.  

Seaton said, "Our Hellas family is a testament to what hard work, dedication, drive, and passion can accomplish." 

Now in its 32nd year, the Entrepreneur Of The Year program has expanded to recognize business leaders in more than 145 cities and more than 60 countries throughout the world. 

Regional award winners are eligible for consideration for the Entrepreneur Of The Year National competition. Award winners in several national categories, as well as the Entrepreneur Of The Year National Overall Award winner, will be announced at the Entrepreneur Of The Year National Awards gala in Palm Springs, California, on November 17, 2018.
