4th November 2024 ◦ Wokingham, The Royal County of Berkshire ◦ UK-based technology company Bexprt becomes the first Cloud & AI Services Company honoured with a King’s Award for Enterprise.

In a ceremony held in Wokingham’s Town Hall on the 4^th November, His Majesty’s Representative, the Lord Lieutenant of the Royal County of Berkshire, Mr Andrew Try, presented the commemorative award and the Grant of Appointment to Bexprt’s CEO and Founder, Mohamed Hamdy, in front of the Mayor of Wokingham, Councillor Rob Comber, Local Councillors, business colleagues, friends, family and some of the Bexprt HQ team.

The King’s Awards for Enterprise are the most prestigious awards for UK businesses, recognising and celebrating business excellence across the UK. On the recommendation of the UK Prime Minister, and approved by His Majesty The King, they are awarded to businesses which have demonstrated outstanding success in their respective fields of innovation, international trade, sustainable development and promoting opportunity through social mobility.

During the presentation ceremony, addressing Mohamed, the Lord Lieutenant said,

“You are a credit to the country and the county of Berkshire and prove that innovation and particularly international trade are all things that, with focus and creativity Britain can be extremely successful at. You are a role model to others and on behalf of His Majesty I congratulate you on winning this award.”

“I am honoured to formally receive this most prestigious award on behalf of the Bexprt Team, in the presence of some of our key partners, business colleagues, friends, and family, whose support has been invaluable in reaching this milestone”, shared Mohamed Hamdy, Founder & CEO of Bexprt.

“We are the first Cloud & AI Services company to receive the King’s Award for Enterprise, an exciting achievement for our Winnersh Triangle headquartered business.”

The King’s Awards for Enterprise, previously known as The Queen’s Awards for Enterprise, were renamed last year to reflect His Majesty The King’s desire to continue the legacy of HM Queen Elizabeth II’s by recognising outstanding UK businesses. The Award programme, now in its 58th year, is the most prestigious business award in the country, with successful businesses able to use the esteemed King’s Awards Emblem for the next five years. This year, Bexprt is one of 252 organisations nationally to be recognised with a prestigious King’s Award for Enterprise, and specifically, receives The King’s Award for Enterprise for International Trade, for Outstanding Short Term Growth in Overseas Sales.
