Rockville, MD, September 1, 2009 – Arkin & Company, Chartered announced today that Douglas P.

New to this year's program, we have categorized all the winners under five different strengths.

SmartCEO is honored to recognize all the 2009 SmartCPA winners and will announce thewinners in each category on the night of the event.
Each winner is also profiled in the print and digital September issue of SmartCEO, in which over 34,000 business owners will see and read their stories. The winners are selected by an independent panel of business leaders.
This year’s SmartCPAs have collectively been in their CPA roles for over 680 years, and their firms employ thousands of individuals across the Greater Washington metro.
“SmartCPA recipients represent a unique combination of attributes that any CPA and firm should be inspired by. We are honored to recognize Douglas P. Arkin as one of Greater Washington’s leaders in accounting,” said Jaime Park, publisher of SmartCEO.
SmartCEO thanks the 2009 SmartCPA sponsors for their generous support: TriNet, Odin Feldman Pittleman, Evergreen Capital and the Greater Washington Society of CPAs.
Washington SmartCEO magazine is a regional “growing company” publication. SmartCEO believes that a “growing company” is really determined by the spirit, drive and dynamics of a company’s owners and managers, rather than by the size of its building, the number of its employees, or its sales volume. Each month, a variety of businesses in the greater Baltimore and Washington area turn to SmartCEO for features, case-study advice and trend analysis, all with a uniquely local flavor.
