“We are very honored to be recognized for our work by Entrepreneur.

In the 2 years since its foundation, Venture has installed over a thousand solar systems in New York City, and is now expanding its service footprint to include Nassau County. Established in 2015, the company now employs over a 110 dedicated New Yorkers, who are committed to changing the way the greatest city in the world consumes energy.

“Our annual evaluation is a 360-degree analysis of top privately-held companies representing and serving a variety of industries,” explains Lisa Murray, Chief Insights Officer of Entrepreneur Media, Inc. “These businesses are real-world case studies for any entrepreneur who seeks to master the four pillars that can greatly impact the longevity and growth of their businesses. With the Entrepreneur 360, success is measured by achieving balance throughout the entire organization, predicated by revenue.”

“In 2018, we are also expanding our service footprint to include Nassau County, which will give us a great opportunity to help hundreds more homeowners and business owners join the green revolution by switching to solar,” added Alex Giles, Co-Founder of SunPower by Venture Solar.

“The Entrepreneur 360 List celebrates outstanding companies for the value they bring to the world, not just the worth of their company,” says Bill Shaw, president of Entrepreneur Media, Inc. “The companies on this list exemplify growth, not just in top and bottom line, but in their ability to create a superior value for their customers, build adaptive learning cultures, and drive innovation in their marketplace.”

Honorees were identified based on the results from a comprehensive study of independently-owned companies, using a proprietary algorithm and other advanced analytics. The algorithm was built on a balanced scorecard designed to measure four metrics reflecting major pillars of entrepreneurship—innovation, growth, leadership and impact.
