Who is the Entrepreneur of the Year?

WARREN, R. I. – May 2006 – The Internet bubble may have burst — but someone apparently forgot to tell a few people who are still making money hand over fist on the Web.
One such individual will be crowned the Entrepreneur of the Year
on May 8 at the Grand Hyatt Hotel in New York. The award will be announced at MarketingSherpa's Selling Subscriptions to Internet Content Summit.
Anne Holland, President of MarketingSherpa, says: “The award recognizes the ingenuity of an individual who uses a smart, low-cost online marketing tactic to convince Web surfers they should pay for an email subscription or membership to a Web site instead of only surfing free content online. The Entrepreneur Award proves you don't have to be a big brand name such as WSJ.com or Match.com to get consumers to pay for content.”
The May 8 conference is expected to bring together 250 executives from Web sites that have paid-content areas. The speakers include representatives of NYTimes.com, Reuters.com, Time.com, ConsumerReports.org, Match.com, Hoovers, and others.
