We’re incredibly proud to announce that Devtank has been recognised with two major awards at the East Midlands Chamber Derbyshire Business Awards 2026, held on 26 March 2026:
-
Digital Transformation Award
-
Innovation of the Year Award (sponsored by Rolls-Royce plc)
To be recognised once is an honour but to take home two awards at one of the region’s most prestigious business events is a truly proud moment for our entire team.
A celebration of regional excellence
Hosted by East Midlands Chamber, the Derbyshire Business Awards celebrate the very best of the region’s business community highlighting organisations that demonstrate resilience, growth, collaboration, and innovation. Indeed it was brilliant to see some of our clients either as finalists or winners on the night including Midland Lead who are long term users of our sensors within their processing site.
Across more than a dozen categories, businesses from a wide range of sectors were recognised for their outstanding achievements. The awards shine a spotlight on those driving the East Midlands forward, showcasing the strength, creativity, and ambition within the region.

This award reinforces the value of the work we do alongside our clients and partners every day.
Innovation of the Year Award sponsored by Rolls-Royce
We’re especially honoured to receive Innovation of the Year, a category sponsored by Rolls-Royce plc which is truly a company synonymous with engineering excellence and innovation in Derbyshire and beyond.
This award carries particular significance as:
