Metricell Wins 2026 King's Award for Innovation

Metricell is proud to announce that we have received a 2026 King’s Award for Enterprise in Innovation!

This marks our fourth Enterprise Award, following previous Queen’s Awards for Enterprise in 2012, 2016 and 2020, and our first King’s Award.

The recognition celebrates our Automated Network Investigator (ANI) technology, while also acknowledging the wider culture of problem-solving, collaboration and progress that drives us forward. Innovation has always been central to how we operate, and this award reinforces our commitment to developing technology that helps improve connectivity experiences around the world.

The King’s Awards for Enterprise are among the UK’s most prestigious business honours, recognising outstanding achievement across International Trade, Innovation, Sustainability and Promoting Opportunity. In 2026, 185 businesses across the UK were recognised, including 52 in the Innovation category.

This year is also a significant milestone for the Awards, which celebrate 60 years since the first honours were conferred in 1966. Since then, more than 8,000 UK businesses have been recognised.

We are delighted to share this achievement with our team, customers and partners, and look forward to continuing to deliver innovative solutions that support better connected experiences for all.
