The awards nominees were evaluated by independent regional panels of
judges who assessed contenders for each designated category by the
following criteria: vision, leadership, achievement, and social
responsibility reflected in the revenue growth, innovation, risk-taking, and
personal commitment to the business and the community.

An immigrant to the US, in 1993 Arkadiy Dobkin formed EPAM, which
became one of the first outsourcing companies to leverage the talented pool
of Eastern European engineers. Under his supervision EPAM grew into a
strong multicultural team of best-in-class IT professionals referenced by
company's Fortune 500 global clients, industry professionals, and media.

By 2006, Consulting Magazine named Arkadiy Dobkin one of the Top 25
Consultants of the Year. In 2007 Dobkin was shortlisted as a top three
finalist of the Ernst & Young NJ awards program together with the founders
of Cognizant Technology Solutions and Artech Information System.

In the victorious 2008, Arkadiy Dobkin was nominated for the awards in the
Information Technology Services category by a global technology leader SAP,
one of EPAM's partners and customers with an eleven-year successful
partnership record.

"Ernst & Young is pleased to honor outstanding business leaders such as
Arkadiy Dobkin," said Keith Brownlie, Ernst & Young Entrepreneur Of The
Year Program Director for New Jersey. "Winners of the Entrepreneur of The
Year award build leading businesses and contribute a great deal to the

"I would like to thank EPAM co-founders, veterans, and all employees for
their hard work and commitment to our common goal. This success can be
attributed literally to everybody in the company, in North America and
Europe, and I am happy and proud to be a part of this innovative and
dedicated team," noted Arkadiy Dobkin, EPAM Chairman and CEO.
