Alcove Win WCIT Public Sector Innovator 2015 Award
in Alcove Business sectionWe are really proud of "Our Hellen" after winning the Worshipful Company of Information Technologists' (WCIT) Public Sector Innovator of the Year 2015 award last week.
Hellen was nominated for both Public Sector and the Social Innovator of the Year awards but she was nice so decided to let someone else win something. You can see all the winners here.
We had a fab night out at the Plaisterers' Hall enjoying excellent company amongst the tech entrepreneur and advisor community - big shout out to Alicia Navarro - founder of Skimlinks which helps you monetise online content, Aaron Ross - founder of restaurant payment software Cake, Simon Gordon - founder of Facewatch which tackles crime, who all provided excellent dinner conversation. And to Sanjit Atwal, Duane Jackson and George O'Connor who provided many laughs in the bar afterwards! Not to forget Rob Wirszycz - mentor of the year and one of our shareholders, and the lovely Guy Rigby and Nick Travis from Smith & Williamson - of whom we are massive fans.
And it's Alcove's birthday tomorrow so double celebrations. Looking back on a great year and looking forward to an even better one - number one plan is to scale so we can have a bigger impact and make a real difference. Whoop whoop.
