ML Electronics celebrates double awards success at the Wiltshire Business of the Year Awards

ML Electronics (MLE) announces today that the company has won the Dyson award for Engineering along with the Virgin Mobile award for Best Business culture in the Wiltshire Business of the Year Award 2005.

It was announced that MLE, a developer of specialist electronics systems, had won the awards at a ceremony held on Friday 24th February at the De Vere Hotel in Swindon.

Managing Director of MLE, Mike Lloyd, who collected the Dyson Award for Engineering says :
 “This award recognises the high level of skills we have within the team and the effort we have put into developing a consistent and effective design process for our clients.”

The judging panel for the Dyson award for Engineering was impressed by MLE’s focus upon testing and prototyping within their 5-stage design process. It was their commitment to this and the company’s culture that swayed the judging panel for the Engineering award. Peter Richardson, Chief Operating Officer, Dyson comments
"MLE has a special recipe for success; a willingness, indeed a hunger for experimentation, combined with proven engineering expertise. The team is motivated by making better technology and having some fun in the process."

In keeping with the MLE way of life, when the award for Best Business Culture was announced, Mike Lloyd insisted the team receive the award. He goes on to say
“This awards means a great deal to MLE as our culture is central to our success. We have worked hard to create a wonderful environment where people can develop in themselves and their career and where our clients will enjoy themselves. We work on the philosophy that if our people are happy, our clients will be too.”

The Awards’ judges praised MLE’s culture for its open and supportive nature. Virgin Mobile’s Anita Collier, judge for the Best Business Culture award remarks
“MLE is a place where employees take enormous pride in their work, but where the management take even more pride in them and give them the support and the freedom to fly high.  MLE are a very special company, indeed, I don't think they realise just how special they are."
