Palm Springs, California November 20, 2019 – EY named Neurala COO and Co-Founder Heather Ames Versace a national finalist for the Entrepreneur Of The Year® 2019 Award. Now in its 33rd year, this prestigious award recognizes and celebrates unstoppable entrepreneurs who redefine the way we live, work and play. Heather was named a finalist by an independent panel of judges, and the recognition was announced at the Strategic Growth Forum® in Palm Springs on November 16. National Entrepreneur of the Year Finalist can now be added to the already impressive list of accomplishments Heather has amassed in 2019.
