We are enormously proud to be following the likes of ARM, GlobespanVirata, TTP and Acambis into the hall of fame as a Business of the Year. Business Weekly’s Award is tough to win and the calibre of the entrants this year makes this prize even more precious.” Other major Awards winners were: Innovation: Astex Technology; Growth & Expansion: MITIE Scotgate; Private Company: Sepura; Quoted Company: AVEVA Group; EEDA Spirit of Ingenuity Award: Ubisense.
