Watteredge, Inc. Receives Leading EDGE Award
05/20/2009 - Watteredge, Inc., headquartered in Avon Lake, Ohio, was among 96 Northeast Ohio companies honored at the 2009 Crain’s Leading EDGE Awards ceremony, held this year at Kent State University in Kent, Ohio. In its third year, this prestigious award was created and developed by The Entrepreneurs EDGE to recognize value-creating middle-market companies in the Northeast Ohio region. Qualifying companies operate within the 17 counties of Northeast Ohio and generate revenues up to $750 million, a portion required to be outside the region. Of these, the top companies were identified based on their EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes) added to taxable employee compensation, a calculation used to determine the value that nominated companies contribute to the region.
Joseph P. Langhenry, Watteredge, Inc. President and CEO states:
“This is a reflection of the efforts of our workforce achieving this recognition in a tough economic environment.”
The Entrepreneurs EDGE, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, provides services, programs, education, civic and networking opportunities to mid-market companies in Northeast Ohio to help them grow in value.
