Mpowa Recognised for Commitment to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
Mpowa has been proudly named as a finalist in this year’s Lloyds Bank British Business Excellence Awards 2025, an elite, cross-sector programme that celebrates standout organisations across the UK.
The innovative technology solutions provider, based in London, will compete alongside other leading businesses in the Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DE&I) Champion of the Year category. This prestigious category honours businesses that have taken significant steps to support their workforce and foster a culture grounded in respect, fairness, and equal opportunity.
As a trailblazer in digital transformation and technology-driven professional development, Mpowa’s mission is to empower diverse talent in companies and nurture an inclusive environment, while providing cutting-edge learning solutions across industries. Mpowa places DE&I at the epicentre of its culture and operations through a range of initiatives—including targeted outreach for underrepresented groups, ongoing unconscious bias training, and an ever-evolving programme to support lifelong learning.
Internally, Mpowa is committed to enhancing board-level diversity and ensuring all team members benefit from flexible working options, comprehensive wellbeing resources, and robust mentorship opportunities.
“Being recognised as a finalist for the DE&I Champion of the Year Award reflects the dedication and hard work of our entire team. At Mpowa, we challenge conventions and empower every individual to bring their whole selves to work—regardless of background, gender, or identity. The technology sector has a unique responsibility to set a standard for openness and representation, and we’re determined to lead by example. We remain committed to making tech careers accessible to all, creating meaningful pathways to opportunity, and shaping a more equitable industry for the future. This shortlisting is a powerful testament to the progress we’re making.”
“As the UK’s unrivalled celebration of business brilliance, resilience, and innovation, the Lloyds Bank British Business Excellence Awards takes centre stage—and this year is no exception. The anticipation is electrifying as we gear up for the grand event at the glamorous Grosvenor House Hotel.
Our excitement levels have hit the roof as we’ve witnessed a spectacular level of submissions across a wide range of dynamic industries—highlighting just how much the UK business landscape is thriving.

You’ve made us stand up and take notice, and we can’t wait to celebrate your remarkable achievements.”
