Charlie Ergen
Charles William "Charlie" Ergen (born March 1, 1953) is an American businessman and is the co-founder and current Chairman of the Board, and former President and CEO of Dish Network and EchoStar Communications Corporation. He stepped down as CEO in May 2011 in favor of Joseph Clayton. He remains Chairman of the Board of both companies. Ergen resumed as CEO upon Clayton's March 31, 2015 retirement. Ergen owns 52 percent of Dish and Echostar shares and holds 88 percent of its total voting power.
Early life and education
Ergen was born into an Episcopalian family in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, on March 1, 1953, the fourth of five children born to Viola (née Siebenthal) and William Krasny Ergen. His mother was one of the first female accountants in the state of Minnesota and his father was an Austrian immigrant who was working in Sweden as a nuclear physicist who left Europe prior to World War II. His father coined the phrase "China Syndrome". His parents married in Minnesota in 1944 and then moved to Camden, New Jersey, before settling in Oak Ridge where his father accepted a position at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. Ergen received a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Tennessee at Knoxville, and an M.B.A. from Wake Forest University. He was a professional blackjack and poker player. Ergen studied finance at the University of Tennessee, became a CPA, and worked for Frito-Lay before striking out on his own.

Silicon Flatirons presents Charlie Ergen as our featured entrepreneur with moderators Brad Bernthal and Phil Weiser.
In 1980, Charles W Ergen started DISH Network Corporation (formerly EchoStar Communications Corporation), which sold C-band satellite TV dishes to rural homes in Colorado. Under his vision and leadership, DISH Network, which was launched in 1996, has become the fastest growing direct-to-home satellite television company in the United States, currently serving more than 13.815 million customers. In 2007, Barron's magazine named Ergen as one of the World's Best CEOs. He had previously been named to the Forbes Magazine Top Ten CEO's list and as the Frost & Sullivan 2001 CEO of the Year of the Satellite Industry. The same year, Ergen was the first person ever to win the Rocky Mountain News' Business Person of the Year for a second time, having been recognized for the same award in 1996. In 2000, Aviation Week Magazine named him Space Industry Business Man of the Year. In June 1991, INC Magazine named Ergen Master Entrepreneur of the Year for the Rocky Mountain region. In 1988, he received the Home Satellite TV Association Star Award. Ergen was instrumental in fighting for consumer rights, in 1999 with the passage of the Satellite Home Viewer Improvement Act, which gave American consumers the right to watch local TV channels via satellite. He has also testified before Congress regarding other video competition issues on numerous occasions and was a co-founder of the Satellite Broadcasting Communications Association. Ergen received his BS in General Business and Accounting from the University of Tennessee and his MBA from the Babcock Graduate School of Management at Wake Forest University.

Charlie Ergen
Charles William "Charlie" Ergen (born March 1, 1953) is an American businessman and is the co-founder and current Chairman of the Board, and former President and CEO of Dish Network and EchoStar Communications Corporation. He stepped down as CEO in May 2011 in favor of Joseph Clayton. He remains Chairman of the Board of both companies. Ergen resumed as CEO upon Clayton's March 31, 2015 retirement. Ergen owns 52 percent of Dish and Echostar shares and holds 88 percent of its total voting power.
Early life and education
Ergen was born into an Episcopalian family in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, on March 1, 1953, the fourth of five children born to Viola (née Siebenthal) and William Krasny Ergen. His mother was one of the first female accountants in the state of Minnesota and his father was an Austrian immigrant who was working in Sweden as a nuclear physicist who left Europe prior to World War II. His father coined the phrase "China Syndrome". His parents married in Minnesota in 1944 and then moved to Camden, New Jersey, before settling in Oak Ridge where his father accepted a position at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. Ergen received a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Tennessee at Knoxville, and an M.B.A. from Wake Forest University. He was a professional blackjack and poker player. Ergen studied finance at the University of Tennessee, became a CPA, and worked for Frito-Lay before striking out on his own.
