It is our great pleasure to bring you the 2024 edition of The King’s Awards for Enterprise Magazine, celebrating and showcasing this year’s award holders.
We extend our warm congratulations to every company that has been honoured with a 2024 King’s Award. Whether in the field of international trade, innovation, sustainable development or promoting social mobility, receiving an Award is a proof of excellence, and recognised across the globe.
The Awards continue to constitute the highest honour that can be bestowed upon a British company, and become ever more relevant with each passing year.
The late Duke of Edinburgh helped launch the Awards in the mid-1960s, and we at The King’s Awards for Enterprise Magazine, as well as the hundreds of companies who’ve received an Award over the past six decades, owe a great debt of gratitude to both him and Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. It is inspiring to see UK businesses lead the way on the world stage, across every sector, despite the economic and geopolitical hurdles we currently face. As the Governor of the Bank of England, Andrew Bailey, says in his foreword: “The variety of businesses who have been awarded a King’s Award for Enterprise this year are shining examples of the thriving firms found across the country. It is through their innovation, tenacity and dedication that they have helped drive economic growth and create jobs in their communities.”
We couldn’t agree more and wish all of this year’s King’s Award holders continued and even greater success.
