Entrepreneur Of The Year celebrates ambitious entrepreneurs who are shaping the future
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., April 21, 2025 --(BUSINESS WIRE)– Ernst & Young LLP (EY US) has announced the finalists for the prestigious Entrepreneur Of The Year 2025 New England Award. Now in its 40th year, the Entrepreneur Of The Year program celebrates the bold leaders who disrupt markets through the world’s most ground-breaking companies, revolutionizing industries and making a profound impact on communities. The program honors bold entrepreneurs whose innovations shape the future and pave the way for a thriving economy and a hopeful tomorrow.
An independent panel of judges selected Jeff Elton, among 31 finalists for their entrepreneurial spirit, purpose, growth and lasting impact in building long-term value.
ConcertAI is the leader in oncology generative and agentic AI SaaS and multi-modal data (MMD) solutions for healthcare and life sciences.

Under Jeff Elton’s leadership, ConcertAI has set the standard for data-driven, AI-powered oncology care, research, and technology-enabled solutions supporting the overall patient journey.
"This finalist recognition from the Entrepreneur Of The Year New England award program is an incredible honor—not just for me, but for the entire ConcertAI team and our partners,” said Jeff Elton PhD, CEO at ConcertAI. “It validates and reflects our mission of transforming and improving cancer research and care, where AI and data at population scale can provide clinicians and biopharma innovators the most advanced solutions for patients with the highest unmet medical needs and most complex care."
Entrepreneur Of The Year honors business leaders for their ingenuity, courage and entrepreneurial spirit. The program celebrates original founders who bootstrapped their business from inception or who raised outside capital to grow their company; transformational CEOs who infused innovation into an existing organization to catapult its trajectory; and multigenerational family business leaders who reimagined a legacy business model to strengthen it for the future.
Regional award winners will be announced on Wednesday, June 11th during a special celebration in Boston, MA and will become lifetime members of an esteemed community of Entrepreneur Of The Year alumni from around the world.
