Inflexion is delighted to announce that its portfolio companies Lintbells and Upperton have both been recognised by this year’s King’s Awards for Enterprise, one of the most prestigious business awards in the UK. Both companies won the award in the International Trade category for their outstanding international growth over the last year.

Lintbells has previously received the The Queen’s Award for Enterprise: Innovation in 2016 and The Queen’s Award for Enterprise Innovation: International Trade in 2018, and this most recent award recognises its continued international growth, including a significant launch into the US. This is the first year that Upperton has received the award, and recognises its impressive recent international growth. Upperton and Lintbells join previous Queen’s Award winners from the Inflexion portfolio including Xtrac, Mobica and Aspen Pumps.

The King’s Award for Excellence is the ultimate accolade for UK businesses, and we are delighted that two of our portfolio companies have been recognised for their international growth. International expansion is a key lever that Inflexion uses to support its portfolio companies to achieve their growth ambitions, and Lintbells and Upperton are fantastic examples of how this can really make an impact.
