The attractions technology firm was awarded the title of 2022 Made in the South East’s Exporter of the Year at a special finalist ceremony at Gatwick, near the UK capital of London.
Outstanding exports
The black-tie event, compered by Philip Cunliffe, features a wide range of other categories including Apprentice of the Year, Food & Drink and Sustainable/Ethical Manufacturer.
A representative for the judging panel said: “7thSense invents, develops, and manufactures specific ranges of hardware and software for attractions, science centres, theme parks and live events worldwide. Its principal export markets are in the US, Japan, Australia and India.
“The judges felt the company’s significant export growth and its heavy investment in the development of its next-generation product lines, made 7thSense the outstanding exporter this year.”
“Remarkable achievement”
The Made in the South East awards, now in their eighth year, highlight and honour the region’s high-quality manufacturing sector and the skilled workforce it employs. As a result, it is a major event for industrial and engineering firms throughout the South East of the United Kingdom.
