accesso Technology Group plc (AIM: ACSO), the premier technology solutions provider to leisure, entertainment and cultural markets, is pleased to reference a number of recent award wins in recognition of its innovative technology, its impact on the end-markets it serves, and on its growth track record as a firm.
accesso received two awards at the 2017 IAAPA Attractions Expo: the attraction industry's largest and most prestigious event. Both were awarded to the Group's accesso Prism product, which won IAAPA's highest honour for a new product, the Impact Award, as well as a Brass Ring award for the best new technology product. IAAPA's Impact Award is bestowed annually on a winner of one of the Best New Product Categories that, in the opinion of the judging panel, had or will have the largest impact on the amusement parks and attractions industry. The Brass Ring award recognises excellence throughout the global attractions industry, and is the fifth such award accesso has won in the last nine years.
In the same week, accesso was also named mid-market business of the year at the Lloyds Bank National Business Awards. In their summarising comments, the judges referenced the Group's global reach, vision and dynamic leadership as reasons for winning the award.
Tom Burnet, Executive Chairman of accesso commented:
"It's fantastic to win these awards and it's tremendous to be recognised by both our industry and by the British business community. We pride ourselves on the quality of our technology and we are excited about all the possibilities we see to put accesso Prism at the heart of our queuing operations.
More than anything, these awards reflect the passion, creativity and commitment of Accesso's people, all of whom have played their part in our success. I'd like to thank them all for their hard work, vision and commitment to our firm - and to the customers we're so proud to serve."
