We are extremely happy and proud to announce that Freebook Global Technologies is the winner in the High Growth Tech Business category for the South Coast Tech Awards 2020. On the 7th of October, we attended the live online event hosted by the popular TV presenter Spencer Kelly where we received the amazing news.
“Tech has been a sector that has grown significantly in the Solent and South Coast regions and now plays a major role in the local economy,” the award’s host, technology presenter and computer scientist Spencer Kelly, told the virtual audience. It’s been a tough few months for the vast majority of businesses, which makes us even more grateful for having the opportunity to participate in this outstanding event.
Being recognized as one of the businesses that play a major role in the tech industry in the south is something we are incredibly proud of. The judges have said that there were many high calibre entries this year for our category, but noted that we have shown an outstanding amount of growth in many areas such as revenue, profits, staff numbers, customer numbers and range of services, demonstrating a robust strategy for the continuation of our growth. Not to mention the fact that we have great employee retention and the development of our management team within our company, as well as our focus on corporate social responsibility, is highly inspirational.
We would like to thank the headline sponsors of the South Coast Tech Awards, Spectrum IT, as well as the other event sponsors, BDB Pitmans, Blake Morgan, EY, Onecom, Smith & Williamson and Palm Beach Florida Science Park. The judges, organisers and the host all did a fantastic job bringing the event live whilst accommodating to the current circumstances, and a big thank you also goes to them.
“On behalf of Freebook Global Technologies, I’d like to say how proud we are of this award. To be recognised for our continuing hard work in building out such a diverse and stable business is fantastic. We have a dedicated and highly skilled team here and we all work hard to support each other. I’m proud of what we have achieved and I’m privileged to be part of such an incredible group. It’s also great to have a platform to recognise them, so many thanks indeed for all of those involved in the South Coast Tech Awards – we are delighted to have had this opportunity.”
