What our top 10 Megabuyte Emerging Stars ranking means to us – and our clients
We are thrilled to have been ranked 8 out of 25 in this year’s Megabuyte Emerging Stars awards. To feature in the top 10 in such a prestigious ranking is a real honour, and places us amongst the very best of the UK’s tech scale-ups.
The Megabuyte awards are wholly independent and are based on its proprietary Megabuyte Scorecard methodology, which assesses companies' performance against several key financial KPIs.
The proprietary nature of their content, unavailable through other data or information providers, its independence, and focus on actionable insights have made Megabuyte an indispensable resource for the tech sector’s investors and advisers.
