Macrium Software Wins 'Small Business of the Year' at the Prolific North Tech Awards

Macrium Software, the industry leader in image-based backup and recovery software, has been awarded 'Small Business of the Year' at the 2023 Prolific North Tech awards.

Organised and hosted by Prolific North, the North's independent news and events publisher for the digital and creative sectors, the tech awards are now in their fifth year. They celebrate the innovation, achievements and success of businesses and entrepreneurs across the region.

The 2023 Awards Ceremony

The awards ceremony, which took place on Thursday 9th November at Manchester United Football Club’s stadium in Old Trafford, brought together industry leaders, entrepreneurs and innovators.

Hosted by actor and presenter Tom Wells, the awards were sponsored by companies such as Bruntwood SciTech, FinTech North and The Growth Company.

The panel of over 20 judges hailed from a diverse range of organisations, including Booking.com, FatFace, Manchester Metropolitan University, UKBlackTech and SkyParlour.

About the Award

'Small Business of the Year' was sponsored by private equity investor YFM Equity Partners in 2023. It aims to recognise small businesses demonstrating consistent growth, commitment to innovation and positive contributions to the industry and tech community in the North.

Macrium Software, which was nominated alongside seven other businesses, was commended by the judges for its drive to set and achieve ambitious targets, its determination to adapt to a rapidly evolving tech landscape and an unwavering commitment to providing the highest quality solutions and support to its clients.
