Washington, D.C. - January 10, 1997 - Charles Holden, President of ABC Computer Services, won the 1996 Entrepreneur of the Year award given by the Washington, D.C. Chamber of Commerce.
Holden was chosen from a select group of talented entrepreneurs because of the dramatic growth experienced by ABC under his leadership. Dissatisfied with his career at industry giant XYZ Corp, Holden started ABC out of a spare bedroom in his house in 1986. He worked on small contracts until 1989, when General Motors hired his company to computerize a region of dealerships. That contract led to others and, by the end of 1995, ABC's revenues exceeded $12 million. Holden has aB.S. in Computer Science from the University of Texas. .
