Smith Myers has been honoured with a King’s Award for Enterprise Innovation 2024 recognising its ARTEMIS suite of Search and Rescue SAR systems. Recently selected for several major UK, European and North American SAR and Coast Guard Programmes.
“This is truly a great honour and tribute to our team who have created an evolving and innovative life-saving suite of products. In our 37th year in business, we are delighted to have been recognised for Excellence in Innovation – the key driver of everything we do,” said Peter Myers, co-founder and Company Director.
“ARTEMIS is a perfect example of how our team applies industry leading cellular technology to provide a meaningful solution to a real-world problem. As the first system of its type, ARTEMIS continues to lead the market worldwide. Close work with our expanding customer base has seen several spirals of capability innovation already. Simply put, ARTEMIS saves more lives, faster,” added Andrew Munro, Managing Director. “Everyone at Smith Myers should be very proud of this prestigious recognition of their work,”
The King’s Awards for Enterprise, previously known as The Queen’s Awards for Enterprise, were renamed last year to reflect HM King Charles III’s desire to continue the legacy of HM Queen Elizabeth II in recognising outstanding UK businesses. The Award programme, now in its 58th year, is the most prestigious business award in the country, with successful businesses able to use the esteemed King’s Awards Emblem for the next five years.
