The category recognises businesses that have successfully leveraged private equity or venture capital backing to deliver strong performance, growth and innovation, while making a positive contribution to their industries and communities.

The Private Business Awards, sponsored by BDO, is a comprehensive national programme, designed to seek, select and reward the very best of the UK’s private businesses.
Julian Frost, partner and sponsor for the Private Business Awards at BDO LLP, commented: "The UK's mid-market is at the heart of the UK economy, playing a vital role in job creation and boasting an impressive track record of growth, particularly against a backdrop of economic uncertainty.
"These private businesses, and the people who lead them, often sit in the shadows of UK capital markets. It is a richly diverse community, hugely entrepreneurial, with some fantastic stories to tell and inspire. For private or PE-backed business in the UK, the awards provide a great opportunity to be recognised and celebrated."
Phil Race, chief executive officer of Totalmobile, said: “We are immensely grateful to have been honoured with this award. Every single member of the Totalmobile team plays a part in delivering real, meaningful impact for our customers every day, and this recognition is a huge moment of pride for us all”.
Tom Keen, partner at Bowmark, said: “We congratulate the Totalmobile team on this well-deserved award. The company has consistently demonstrated innovation, customer focus and leadership in its market, and we are delighted to be supporting its ambitious growth strategy.”
