The iconic Wembley Stadium[2] was the venue for the ceremony which celebrated the achievements of small to medium-sized enterprises across the UK. Acorn Analytical Services Northampton[3] took home the Silver Award for High Growth in recognition of a remarkable year which has seen them increase turnover, move premises, open a new regional office and grow their team.

Director Ian Stone said: “To be able to have our work recognised at a national level is a huge achievement for us and shows just how far we have come over the past ten years. “We are absolutely thrilled with this award – it really does mean the world to all of us.”
