Magnet Harlequin has been voted as a finalist for the BPIF 2009 Awards of Excellence in the Company of the Year (-100 employees) category.

The winner of the award, which focuses on a combination of the excellence of the businesses themselves as well as the work and is sponsored by Print Week this year, will be announced at a Gala event in July at a Park Lane hotel.

Maglabs Chariman Patrick Bell comments “We’d like to start by thanking the judges for voting for us and wishing the other finalists good luck. Over the past three years ours has become a global UK success story.  With the benefit of an energised team and a contemporised product we enjoy excellent partnerships with market-leading clients – and becoming a finalist as Company of the Year celebrates this achievement to date.  In addition, we hope that recognition of our successful evolution in contrast to the gloom, stagnation and questionable consolidation elsewhere in 2008, will provide a confidence boost for the wider UK industry to raise standards, renew legitimate self esteem and promote positive perceptions of our industry for the benefit of all.”
