Silverwing wins International Impact Management Team of the Year for Wales
11/08/2014
Silverwing has announced winning the Wales region International Impact Management Team of the Year award. This award is sponsored by the British Venture Capital Association (BVCA) and is judged by a panel of leading figures after intense due diligence and in-depth interviews. The regional winners are put forward to the national awards announced on 18 June in London.
The BVCA Management Team Awards are designed to celebrate managerial excellence and underline what an important role private equity and venture capital plays in the national economy.
Silverwing Group CEO, Wayne Woodhead, commented: “It’s great to have the hard work of the last two years recognised, and the contribution Silverwing makes to the local economy of Wales as a result of our export-led growth. Although this is a management award, it would not be possible without the contribution of all our employees in achieving growth through product innovation, quality manufacture and delivering high levels of customer service.
“With the support of NVM Private Equity (NVM) we continue to invest in the business, strengthening the knowledge and experience of our staff, developing market-leading products and improving operational capability.”
James Arrowsmith, NVM Director, commented: “We’re delighted that Wayne and his team at Silverwing have been recognised in the latest BVCA awards. Since the MBO in 2012, they have continued to develop their market-leading range of testing products for the oil & gas industry. They have also extended their geographic footprint to the US, to complement their existing sales activities in Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Asia. They are a British [Welsh] company that is winning business with blue chip companies all over the world and I look forward to working with them to continue growing the business.”
