Bob Simpson, CPA, was presented with the Small Business Person of the Year Award by the Delaware County Chamber of Commerce at their 2011 Small Business Awards Reception on April 6, 2011.
Bob founded Brinker, Simpson & Company LLC, a full service CPA and business advisory firm, in 1988 and has been Managing Partner ever since. Serving closely held businesses and individuals, Bob’s vision for the firm has been to provide a comfortable work place where employees are valued and clients receive top level, personal tax, accounting and business advisory services. The firm has grown over the years to now employ 20 people at the Springfield, Delaware County offices.
In addition to being voted a “Best Place to Work” by the Philadelphia Business Journal in 2010, Brinker, Simpson & Company is committed to giving back to the community by sponsoring families in need each holiday season, donating money to food banks, and participating in educational career day programs at local high schools and colleges. Elected auditor of Springfield Township in 2007, Bob sits on the board of the Entrepreneur Organization of Philadelphia and on local charity boards.
At the awards ceremony, Bob explained in his speech that “as a business owner, you need to start each day by shaking off the problems and stresses you know you will face, and believe that the office you are about to walk into is the best place to work. If you believe it, so will your employees.” Bob’s family and employees were in attendance to congratulate him on receiving this great honor.
Brinker Simpson and the Delaware County Keystone Innovation Zone (DCKIZ) are pleased to announce the firm’s inclusion on the Zone’s Operating Partners’ Group. Effective March 25, 2011, Bob Simpson accepted the invitation and will begin advising the Partners and the Zone’s portfolio companies on matters related to Brinker Simpson’s core specialties.
A Keystone Innovation Zone (KIZ) is a state designated zone that has been established in communities which host institutions of higher education - colleges, universities, junior colleges and technical schools. These zones are designed to foster innovation and create entrepreneurial opportunities. The primary financial incentive for qualified companies is the KIZ tax credit, which is sellable, used to grow businesses.
“The Delaware County Keystone Innovation Zone is thrilled to welcome Brinker Simpson to our Operating Partners Group,” said John Dixon, Coordinator for the Zone. “Brinker Simpson brings much needed accounting, tax, financial planning, and business advisory services and expertise to our partners and companies and truly helps us realize our goal of benefitting early stage companies – both as they develop out of the university research community and as they form by other means. Bob Simpson’s outstanding reputation in Delaware County and throughout the Philadelphia region will be a true value-add for our zone for years to come.”
Designated in May 2006 to support the industry clusters of homeland security and defense, and a variety of related industries, the Delaware County Keystone Innovation Zone catalyzes and matches the knowledge and intellectual assets of regional academic institutions with the support of local partners to benefit entrepreneurial, early stage companies. Comprised of (14) portfolio companies and a range of for-and-non-profit partners with expertise from legal and strategic planning to real estate and accounting, the zone is headquartered in Chester, PA. The Delaware County KIZ’s vision is to become a local, regional and national leader in innovation led commercialization.
“We are very excited to join the Operating Partners Group of the Delaware County KIZ, said Bob Simpson. “Assisting entrepreneurs in the development of their business is our way to give back to Delaware County.”

On Monday August 30, 2010, Brinker, Simpson & Company was notified by the Philadelphia Business Journal that we were selected as one of the Best Places to Work 2010. The Best Places to Work program ranks the top employers in the Delaware Valley according to scores given to the companies by their own workers. According to Sonja Sherwood, special reports editor for the Philadelphia Business Journal, "The contest is based on how workers score their companies in an anonymous online survey administered by an independent third party, so there are no outside judges or subjective criteria, and companies are benchmarked against their size peers. If you don't have the loyalty of your employees, not only can't you win, you can't even qualify to compete." We, at Brinker, Simpson & Company are very proud to receive this honor and are especially grateful for our loyal, dedicated and hard-working employees.
