The founders of digital marketing agency Alphageek Digital have been named among the UK’s brightest new entrepreneurs after being shortlisted for a prestigious national award.

In just four years, Art Lindop, Kieran Flynn and Alex Mills have built Alphageek into a £1 million turnover business.

Now, they have beaten off competition from across the UK to be shortlisted in the Great British Entrepreneur Awards.

The trio have been shortlisted in the Young Entrepreneur of the Year category and are hoping they will follow in the footsteps of previous winners which include Steven Bartlett, who now appears on Dragons’ Den, and the founders of The LAD Bible, Tangle Teezer and Grenade.

Although still only in their 20s, the trio have established a firm with a reputation for providing a whole range of digital marketing services, including social media advertising, pay-per-click and content creation.

The company, which is based in Friar Gate and employs 20 people, has an annual turnover of £1.2 million and 50 clients based in four continents on its books.

Art said: “The Great British Entrepreneur Awards are incredibly prestigious, and we couldn’t be more thrilled to have made the shortlist – it’s testament to the whole Alphageek team.

“To have our hard work recognised is a thrill, especially after only a relatively short time in business, and particularly in a national award that has been given to some truly inspirational business leaders in the past.

“We have reached some brilliant milestones in the last 12 months – not least exceeding a million-pound turnover – and have some fantastic clients across the world.

“We are incredibly proud of everything we have achieved so far and excited to build on this to create one of the best agencies in the UK.”

The Great British Entrepreneur Awards, often referred to as the “Grammys of Entrepreneurship,” celebrates the achievements of the UK’s most dynamic and innovative businesses.

Each year, the awards receive thousands of applications, underscoring the competitive nature and high standard of the competition.

The winners will be announced at an awards ceremony in London on 18 November.
