SS+A sponsors OxLEP Business Marketplace Award for Export Potential of the Year
We are excited to announce that Last week Stephen had the honour of attending the OxLEP Business Marketplace and awards event at the Examination Schools in Oxford.
SS+A were the proud sponsors of the Export Potential of the Year award and thoroughly enjoyed meeting all the finalists and discussing the importance of operating in a global marketplace with the deserved winner, Legacy Marketplace - B Corp™ - Sustainable Sourcing for Events & Merchandise.
What stood out was not just Legacy's exporting success achieved to date, but above all, the commitment to "exporting values". Recognising that the market is increasingly demanding sustainable products (in what has traditionally been a throwaway industry), using this commitment as a differentiator is a powerful strategy. The preloved strategy and adoption of AI to support sustainability are impressive examples of innovation in pursuing growth whilst being consistent with the values.
A great time was had by all and a huge congratulations to the eight award winners:
