Welsh Enterprise Awards 2024

much like Wales itself, prioritises collaboration, innovation, and growth. Empowering this team to be the very best that they can be is essentially what de Novo’s business environment revolves around, something that mirrors Mark’s own leadership style. Since Mark is a self-proclaimed serial entrepreneur and has founded three start-ups to date, it is the limitless drive embodied by this visionary leader that inspires his team to reach their full potential and deliver nothing short of the very best for the company and its clients alike. Regardless of their role or position within the company, staff here are always invited to share their ideas, take the initiative in projects, and play as active a role as they can in ensuring the business continues to move in the right direction. These are also the qualities sought out when hiring, as the company prizes the likes of problem-solving abilities, passion, and tenacity alongside the relevant technical skills. By focusing on these areas, de Novo has grown from an intimate team of ten to a thriving workforce of 100 in less than four years. Such growth highlights the success of the company in bringing top talent into the fold, as well as to finding those individuals whose vision aligns with the company’s own. Together, these immensely talented digital transformation experts are pushing the boundaries of what is thought possible in this space, something that is only set to continue as we move into 2025 and beyond. Having recently opened the forementioned development centre in Chennai, India, the next 12-18 months for the firm will see it focus on its global growth strategy, something that will enable it to better serve its growing international client base and improve the delivery of its overall service. Across both this site in India and its UK offices, the company is also focusing on talent development, doubling down on both the apprenticeships discussed earlier and graduate hires to close the digital skills gap plaguing industry today. Moreover, at the other end of the spectrum, de Novo is excited to announce Paul Shilham as its first Chief Financial Officer and board member. The appointment of Paul, completes the company’s Executive Leadership team, fortifying the organisations strength across all disciplines, positioning it ready for its next stage of growth, and ushering in a great start to the new year for Mark, Tim, and the rest of the team here. The future is thus incredibly bright for de Novo, which is currently on track to hit its financial goals concerning turnover of £10 million on a healthy EBITDA of £2m being predicted for the 2024-2025 year – as well as expansion with its team soon set to comprise 90 employees in the UK and 20 in India. These figures serve as the backdrop for the company’s inspiration to further enhance its services and streamline its innovative solutions, so that it may continue to meet the changing needs of an increasingly diverse client base for years to come. On the back of this unwavering commitment and consistent excellence, we have recognised the team at de Novo as the Most Innovative Digital Transformation Experts 2024 in the Welsh Enterprise Awards. This is far from the only recognition that this standout company has received over the past 12 months, as it has also been named as Elite Business’s Exceptional Business Performance of the Year Awards and recognition as a Top 10 SME Business in the UK (2024), the UK StartUp Awards for Digital StartUp of the Year (Wales) (2024), and the Business Consultancy Awards for Industry Leader in UK Business Consultancy – Mark Sweeny (2024).
