Betfair named "2005 Company of the Year" for the second straight year
On Wednesday 30th November Betfair was again named the 2005 Company of the Year at the CBI Growing Business Awards - the first time any company has won this prestigious award twice.
The judges praised Betfair’s strong financial growth and market leading position and confirmed the CBI’s view of the company as one of Britain’s most respected businesses.
Betfair Chief Operating Officer David Yu said: “To win this prestigious award once is a great achievement but to retain it for a second year is remarkable. It is a fantastic endorsement of both our product and our business and we look forward to maintaining the staggering growth that the company has already experienced over the coming years.”
Sir Digby Jones, Director General of the CBI, commented on the Growing Business Awards: “Thriving and innovative smaller companies are the backbone of British industry but all too often they are unsung heroes. These Awards are an invitation to share their success stories with us and help pave the way for even greater achievements.”
