We’re thrilled to share that our CEO and Co-founder, Chris Chuang, has been named a winner of the Entrepreneur Of The Year® 2025 Southeast award.
This recognition is a huge milestone for Chris Chuang, who has led Relay with bold vision, relentless determination, and a deep belief in building technology that transforms frontline communication. Under his leadership, Relay has reimagined what’s possible for teams working in loud, complex, and fast-paced environments—making their work safer, more efficient, and more connected.
What Is Entrepreneur Of The Year®?
As the world’s most prestigious business award for entrepreneurs, now in its 40th year, Entrepreneur Of The Year® is at the forefront of identifying game-changing business leaders. The award has honored the inspirational leadership of entrepreneurs such as Sheila Mikhail of AskBio; Jason McGowan of Crumbl Cookies; Jodi Berg of Vitamix; and Kendra Scott of Kendra Scott LLC.
This year’s Southeast winners represent the best of innovation, leadership, and impact, and we’re honored to be in the mix.
Why It Matters to Relay and Our Partners
This recognition reflects not only the success of our founder, but also the strength of the team and the mission behind Relay. We’ve taken big swings to solve communication gaps for frontline industries, and this award acknowledges just how far we’ve come. It sends a strong message to our partners: you’re working with a company that’s growing, resilient, and recognized for bold leadership.
We’re also grateful for our customers and investors who have supported our mission from the beginning. Your belief fuels our momentum.
What’s Next?
This is just one stop on our growth path. From raising $35M in Series B funding last year, to launching our award-winning TeamTranslate™ feature and earning a spot on the Inc. 5000 list, we’re just getting started.
Let’s go, Chris!
