Stage Technologies in running for ‘Business Oscars’

Stage Technologies has been shortlisted for a Growing Business Award, recognising that UK businesses that provide an exceptional service are thriving despite the downturn.

Now in their 11th year, the awards – organised by the CBI and Real Business magazine – identify and honour innovation, international expansion, customer excellence and new product development among the UK’s finest small and medium-sized businesses.

Stage Technologies has been shortlisted for the Global Outlook and Expansion award, due to its approach to making customised and off-the-shelf automation solutions accessible to a wide range of venues, companies and institutions and setting worldwide standards throughout the geographical range of its operations.

Russel Griggs, Chairman of the CBI SME Council and a judge at the Growing Business Awards, said: 'The sheer diversity of business ideas impressed me most about this year’s Growing Business Awards shortlist, particularly during these difficult times. The most successful businesses are fiercely customer focused and have a broad reach, seize opportunities with both hands and make great use of new technologies.'
