It is with very great pleasure that we bring you the 2025 edition of the King’s Awards for Enterprise Magazine, our annual showcase spotlighting the esteemed winners of this year’s Awards. The King’s Award for Enterprise Magazine is proud to play its part in celebrating and championing Enterprise and Innovation, supporting His Majesty The King through the King’s Award for Enterprise. We would like to congratulate each and every winner of this year’s Awards across the four categories; International Trade, Innovation, Sustainable Development and Promoting Social Mobility. These distinct areas represent key pillars within the UK’s economic development so being acknowledged within these sectors through the Awards continues to be the highest honour a UK company can receive. The companies recognised by this year’s Awards are undoubtedly leaders and innovators within their respective fields. With ever increasing complexities in trading, and an increasingly competitive global market place, it is essential to the success of the United Kingdom that we maintain investment in growth and innovation. In this respect, the companies honoured in this year’s magazine and Awards really do continue to lead the way. Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has offered his own “warmest congratulations” to the 197 businesses and organisations who have received The King’s Award for Enterprise in 2025. “It brings me great pleasure to be a part of a process which recognises so many outstanding organisations for their excellence in business,” he said. “This prestigious Award provides recipients with a mark of credibility and trust, which in turn strengthens their competition, elevates their profile, and allows them to gain recognition as an outstanding British business,” he added. However, these Awards signify more than achievement and the winning of an accolade. They embody resilience, purpose-driven innovation, and the unwavering global spirit of UK Enterprise. As you turn these pages, you will learn more about the businesses that are helping shape a sustainable, inclusive and vibrant economy. We are confident their stories will inspire you, ignite ideas and reaffirm our shared commitment to progress. We at the King’s Award for Enterprise Magazine and Nexus Media Events wish all of this year’s winners continued and ever greater success. Richard Stoppard Chief Executive Officer Nexus Media Events CONGRATULATIONS AND WELCOME
