On winning this award, Ikum Kandola, Founder & Managing Director of Teachify, said: ‘Winning this sought-after award truly has provided a massive boost in such a short period of time. Not only that, but having a well-known entrepreneur like Theo take a look at and support our business means a lot. We understand how important teachers are to society and are passionate about reducing their workload by developing and implementing cutting-edge AI software. I look forward to becoming more involved in the network and attending #SBSEvent2024.
Small business champion and Ryman Stationery, Robert Dyas and Boux Avenue Chairman, Theo Paphitis, said: “We are thrilled to welcome new #SBS members every week and highlight just how important it is to support our small businesses here in the UK.
