SYSPRO USA President Joey Benadretti Named Finalist for Excellence in Entrepreneurship Award


COSTA MESA, Calif. - March 7, 2007 -- SYSPRO, a leading enterprise business solutions provider, said that SYSPRO USA President Joey Benadretti is a finalist for an Excellence in Entrepreneurship Award. The awards, sponsored by the Orange County Business Journal, honor those business leaders who have displayed outstanding leadership in driving their respective companies to new levels of achievement. The winners will be announced on March 8 during a luncheon at the Hyatt Regency in Irvine, Calif.

Benadretti co-founded SYSPRO USA with now SYSPRO USA CEO Brian Stein in 1987 to fill a perceived void in the market for a feature-rich, highly cost-effective ERP software solution to enhance the efficiencies of growing manufacturers and distributors in the United States, the Caribbean and Central and South America. In the ensuing twenty years, Benadretti has applied his leadership skills and marketing expertise to build an in-depth organization that serves the company's expanding reseller channel and user base.

Today, SYSPRO USA employs a top notch professional team and boasts a roster of thousands of customers.

Benadretti has extensive experience in working with senior industry consultants, analyst firms and editors and is extremely active in the software community. He is highly regarded in ERP circles for his marketing capabilities, strategic initiatives and thought leadership. He is routinely interviewed by industry experts and has been instrumental in positioning the global SYSPRO brand.

Benadretti is a champion of US manufacturing and towards this end has participated in several conferences dedicated to building the US manufacturing base. He is also a staunch supporter of the community in which SYSPRO USA is based and has sanctioned employee and company participation in charity programs and community events. "As a responsible company, I think it's important to support the institutions in our area in order to give visibility to our educational infrastructure and boost the local workforce," he says.

Among its many affiliations, SYSPRO USA is a proud member of the Orange County Chapter of the AeA and the Technology Council of Southern California, both of which help to raise and solve business issues.
