Comment from the judges

Barrows Connected Store is a genuinely distinctive entry. Operating across three continents, pioneering connected commerce technology and building a culture spanning London, South Africa, and Tampa is no small feat. The philosophical foundations here are strong.
Comment from the judges

The use of Ubuntu as a cultural anchor is particularly distinctive, providing a clear philosophy that underpins inclusion & collaboration – I’ve come across the use of this before & I’m a big fan! Employee voice also comes through strongly, with practical examples of feedback leading to operational change.
