“I am honored to be nominated as an Ernst & Young award finalist, along with such an influential group of entrepreneurs,” said Shmunis. “I launched RingCentral to provide an easier way for businesses to communicate, and with our great team, have grown the company into a successful and thriving business.”
Since founding RingCentral, Shmunis has stayed focused on delivering phone systems that connect employees in multiple locations, improve customer communication and boost productivity. RingCentral is now launching partnerships with AT&T and Rogers, who will soon begin offering its cloud phone system.
The Ernst & Young Entrepreneur Of The Year Program is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year and recognizes business leaders in more than 140 cities and over 50 countries worldwide. Award winners in several national categories and the Entrepreneur Of The Year will be announced at an awards gala in Palm Springs, California in November.
