Marius Silvasan, CEO of eCapital, an AI-powered fintech company redefining how businesses access and manage working capital, has been named a finalist for the Entrepreneur Of The Year 2026 Florida Award by Ernst & Young.
By identifying long-standing gaps in how small and medium-sized businesses access capital, Silvasan has built a platform designed to deliver faster, more flexible financing solutions to companies operating in complex, fast-moving industries.
Now in its 41st year, the Entrepreneur Of The Year program celebrates bold leaders whose vision and execution are transforming industries and shaping the future of business. The program honors founders, growth leaders and executives who are building, scaling and redefining companies through innovation, investment and disciplined execution, exemplifying the ingenuity, resilience and entrepreneurial spirit that drive meaningful economic impact.
“The next generation of finance belongs to companies that can combine technology, capital and real-world industry expertise in a more intelligent way,” Silvasan said. “That has been our focus at eCapital from the beginning, and as we look to the next phase of growth, we see a tremendous opportunity to continue modernizing specialty finance in ways that create a better experience for clients and stronger long-term value across the business. This recognition is a testament to the team helping build what comes next for the industry every day.”
