Sasha Gilenson, selected as Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year finalist from nearly 50 nominations, is being recognized for his vision, innovation and leadership as a proven entrepreneur.

The new rise of disruptive technology platforms, like Cloud, literally changes everything for enterprise IT management, making existing tools outdated. Addressing the new requirements, Evolven's breakthrough configuration analytics solution drives change while maintaining control. Evolven provides the only configuration management solution that dynamically analyzes IT environment configuration data and delivers actionable information, allowing enterprises to reduce risk and enhance visibility of their critical IT operations.

Over a 13 year tenure at Mercury, Sasha observed how enterprises were frustrated with critical business systems going down or underperforming. He saw repeatedly how gaps in IT operations created problems that no technology filled, then approached this from a new perspective. Advising numerous Fortune500 companies, Sasha identified how the industry was taking the wrong approach and pursued his contrarian ideas by founding Evolven. Facing adversity and overcoming obstacles, he raised the initial funding for Evolven, despite facing skepticism and doubt from many, and proposed a daring new approach for addressing the growing complexity challenging IT departments.
