Longevity. Endurance. Fortitude. Grit. Perseverance. Strength. Tenacity. These are all traits of an entrepreneur. Sprinkle in some additional Excellence, Integrity, Leadership, Loyalty, Respect and Seless Service — and you have yourself an Aggie Entrepreneur. And while those traits represent each of this year’s Aggie 100™ Honorees and the more than 1,000 other Honorees throughout the previous 19 years, they also represent Aggie 100 as a program. I invite you to read a story just a page turn away by our friends at the Texas A&M Foundation celebrating 20 years of Aggie 100. But I’ll spoil it a bit here and tell you the idea for Aggie 100 — this program that celebrates 20 years this evening, that has inspired at least 16 other universities to launch similar programs of their own — was an idea born on a napkin. Much like many of your companies began as a spark of an idea, so did this program. And like your companies whose growth we’re celebrating this evening, this program, too, has experi-enced growth. Growth in the number of applications each year. Growth in partnerships and sponsorships. Growth in attendance. Growth in awareness. Growth in the number of individ-ual Aggies and companies we recognize. But perhaps most importantly — growth in the level of Aggie Entrepreneurial Excellence represented year after year. Just when we think we can’t be more impressed, Aggie Entrepreneurs continue to show up for their companies, their com-munities, the economy, their families and our university. While we celebrate two decades of Aggie 100 this year, we give equal celebration to the 100 companies and 144 individual Honorees in your class – the Aggie 100 Class of 2024. It’s a mo-mentous year for Aggie 100 and a momentous year for each of you.We’re so glad you’ve made the return to Aggieland, and we all know nothing beats Aggieland on a home game weekend. But we hope you’ll take this evening to be just a bit selsh and allow us the opportunity and privilege to celebrate the best in Aggie Entrepreneurship — YOU! After this evening, you may choose to enjoy Midnight Yell and stand as the 12th Man to BTHO Mizzou tomorrow, but beyond this weekend, we hope you’ll stay connected with us at the McFerrin Center for Entrepreneurship. We invite you to engage by joining us at networking events, mentoring or judging in one of our programs, sharing your story as a guest speaker or even sponsoring a competition prize or a veteran entrepreneur’s bootcamp experience. Op-portunities are provided throughout this magazine, and we look forward to helping you nd your place in supporting the next generation of Aggie 100 Honorees.Tonight we’re excited to host you and your guests, toast to 20 years of Aggie 100, and boast about the great successes you’ve each experienced as Aggie Entrepreneurs.A message from ourexecutive directorBlake Petty ’98 | Executive Director McFerrin Center for Entrepreneurship

ELEVATINGENTREPRENEURSHIPgraduated was anticipated but not recognized by their alma maters. Scruggs wanted to organize something to celebrate them for taking a risk with what they learned at Texas A&M and applying it in the real world,” explained Blake Petty ’98 ’00, current executive director of Mays Business School’s renamed McFerrin Center for Entrepreneurship.Thus Aggie 100 was born, designed to honor the 100 fastest-growing Aggie-owned or Aggie-led businesses in the world. As Petty said, measuring growth in this way “points straight back to the entrepreneurial nature of the program.”“Many programs recognize largest businesses or most employees, because that 10-to-100 moment for a company is remarkable,” he added. “But for us as an entrepreneurship center, that 0-to-10 moment—measuring from where you started to where you are now—Like all the best business ventures, Aggie 100 began as a back-of-the-napkin idea. In 2005, Richard Scruggs ’77 ’79, former director of the Center for New Ventures and Entrepreneurship at Mays Business School, saw a need to recognize Aggie entrepreneurs beyond graduation.“Scruggs had observed from other entrepreneurship centers that no one was paying much attention to their graduates.

that’s what entrepreneurship means.” It obviously means just as much outside Texas A&M as well, with the Aggie 100 inspiring over 20 other universities to follow suit in launching their own “100” programs to celebrate their graduates’ successes.MAKING THE LISTinees’ submissions and provides the rankings based on a percent-age of compound annual growth in sales or revenues over a three-year period.As the program heads toward its 20th anniversary this fall, Ag-gie 100 has evolved beyond its humble beginnings. More recent-ly, Aggie 100 averages over 600 nominations each year, and 2023 surpassed all previous application records. Petty credited this jump to a niche character trait he calls being “Aggie competitive.”“It would make sense not to nomi-nate other companies because ev-ery spot they take could bump you o; yet we see nominations ood in from honorees nominating oth-er businesses,” he explained. “It’s very ‘Aggie competitive.’ All these people are engaging other busi-nesses, because if they’re going to compete, they might as well com-pete against the best, right?”Over the last two decades, the program has had the honor of celebrating some of Texas A&M’s nest business successes and the extraordinary milestones they’ve reached—many in record time. Hailing from various backgrounds, backstories and back-to-back Aggie 100 appearances, each of these wildly successful past hon-orees represents the unique tal-ent and ambition continuously found at Texas A&M.under the leadership of a Texas A&M graduate, meaning an Aggie must have founded the company and be an active member of the most senior management team, own 50% or more of the company, or serve as the company’s chief executive for the entirety of the three-year, pre-nomination peri-od. Lastly, Aggie 100 prides itself on aligning with the Texas A&M core values and limits recognition to companies that operate in a manner consistent with the Aggie Code of Honor.To claim a coveted spot on the list, applicants provide high-level com-pany information to PKF Texas, an independent accounting rm, to accurately identify the 100 fast-est-growing companies.

Nominations are already open for the 2025 ranking.To be eligible for Aggie 100, nom-inated companies must meet three levels of criteria involving company revenue and longevity, Texas A&M leadership and overall character. This means all award-ed companies must have been in business for at least ve years and have a veriable revenue of $250,000 or more three years be-fore the nomination year.To earn a spot on the Aggie 100 list, companies must also operate The Aggie 100™ Magazine | aggie100.comRECORDBREAKING GROWTHJENNY HANLON ’89STAFFDNA® AND LIQUIDAGENTS HEALTHCAREBoasting a growth rate of 734.72%, Jenny Hanlon ’89 shattered Aggie 100 records in 2023 with StaD-NA, a company known for creat-ing the rst technology platform that lets health care professionals nd, book and manage any kind of job they are looking for from one place, without a recruiter. Whether users choose to register for the platform or not, Hanlon’s innovation provides revolutionary convenience to health care pro-fessionals through transparent information about pay and job de-tails.Hanlon, the founder and CFO who placed four times with sister company LiquidAgents Health-care, broke the previous record by nearly 200 percentage points. She saw this distinction as “an af-rmation that what we’re doing is working.”“With our rapid growth, it’s often-times hard to sit back and look at what we’ve accomplished thus far,” she said. “Seeing StaDNA® or LiquidAgents on the annual Ag-gie 100 list shows us that we’re on the right path, we’re solving the problems we set out to solve and we’re making a dierence in the world.”Taseer Badar ’95 has placed on the Aggie 100 list 33 times with over 20 unique companies under the umbrella of ZT Corporate, a leading private equity rm based in Houston with oces in New York and Los Angeles. He holds the record for the highest number of awards for any single honoree and credits this accomplishment to his dedicated team members, praising them for being “a powerhouse of talent and the driving force behind ZT’s success.”Regarding his own inspiration

I like to do both.” His knack for business began at 8 years old with a paper route and continued with a toner cartridge relling business during his time at Texas A&M, which earned him nearly a quarter million dollars by graduation. Over 25 years later, he has settled into the role of chief executive ocer of ZT Corporate, which continues to strategically grow through acquisitions and investments—a move that Badar anticipates will land him back on the Aggie 100 for years to come.ADVICE FOR ASPIRING ENTREPRENEURSKEVIN BERNHARD ’00JK BERNHARD CONSTRUCTION AND STEEL FRAME SOLUTIONS & DRYWALLA BUSINESS THAT GIVES BACKCOL. JOHN ALBERS ’90, USMC RET.ALBERS AEROSPACEKevin Bernhard ’00 learned about Aggie 100 from his college roommate years after they graduated from Texas A&M. “We were always pretty competitive,” Bernhard admitted, “so when he told me that he had made it on Aggie 100, I knew I had to do it too.”Bernhard placed on the list the very next year. The owner and founder of JK Bernhard Construction Co. and Steel Frame Solutions & Drywall has now been featured on the Aggie 100 list 11 times since 2014. Bernhard believes the secret to success is “working hard, especially when no one is watching.” To aspiring Aggie entrepreneurs, he advises that “when you help others grow and make their lives easier, you will ourish.

No individual is amazing in and of themselves—what makes them successful is their experiences and what they do with them.”Keen for philanthropy, he is also utilizing his experience with Albers Aerospace and the Marine Corps to support the Don & Ellie Knauss Veteran Resource & Support Center (VRSC) at Texas A&M. The company has pledged a $2.25 million endowed gift to support student veterans through the Veteran Evaluation of Talent + Matching Assistance Program (VET+MAP)—a strengths-based program for student veterans’ personal development.Col.

Everyone who moves needs to set up utilities at their home and with thousands of service providers across the country, there was no single source simplifying the process of comparing and setting up utilities.

The first Turtlebox was born out of necessity. After breaking every “loud” product on the market through routine outdoor use, the idea of the Turtlebox was born in our garage, not as a business but just for personal use. Nothing else could get the job done. Most portable speakers aren’t actually meant for the outdoors and can’t withstand the elements, the ones that can aren’t loud enough to be heard. When you’re at the beach or on an ATV, you need sound to carry in order to hear it over the wind, waves, and boat engines, you need a Turtlebox.Turtlebox AudioJeff Bezner ’01Live FreeWe proudly engineer, design, and fabricate ASME Code process equipment and B31.3 piping skids, for the leading production and midstream operators in the Energy Space.Trident Process SystemsPhil Neelley ’96Precision Engineering & Fabrication for Energy LeadersTGS Insurance AgencyDamon Diamantaras ’92 | Cindy Diamantaras ’92 TGS Insurance Agency is an industry disruptor that challenges the traditional insurance agent model.
