The IT company SecurEnvoy is one of the winners of the 2014 Queen’s Award for Enterprise.
SecurEnvoy will receive the award, in the “International Trade” category, for its tokenless two-factor authentication. The London-based company’s world-wide sales network now covers every continent. The award went the company’s founders, Steve Watts and Andy Kemshall.
SecurEnvoy was founded in 2003 by Steve Watts and Andy Kemshall. With offices in London, Frankfurt and San Diego, thecompany’s products SecurAccess, SecurCloud, SecurICE, SecurMail and SecurPassword are now exported to North and South America, Europe, Africa, Asia and Oceania.
Nominations for each category are decided by an independent jury, which then submits its recommendations to the advisory committee of the Prime Minister. The committee then conveys its final recommendations to the Queen, who personally approves the winners. Winners like SecurEnvoy can also expect an invitation to a reception at Buckingham Palace in July. SecurEnvoy’s products will be able to display the Queen’s Award emblem as a symbol of quality and success.
Steve Watts, pictured, is Sales and Marketing Director of SecurEnvoy. He says: “For years we have focused on the expansion and globalisation of our sales network. It’s great that the resulting success of our products has been acknowledged and has even resulted in an award from such a prestigious body. After having already won the Queen’s Award for Innovation in 2011 and having been able to meet the Queen then, we are all the more pleased to be able to see Queen Elizabeth at the award ceremony again this year.”
