Endava CEO Wins Major Business Award
08 Jul 2011
John Cotterell, Chief Executive Officer at Endava, has been selected as an Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year 2011, London & South winner.
This award is in recognition of his vision, passion, leadership qualities and innovation in creating Endava’s successful nearshore IT services operations — across the UK, USA, Romania and Moldova.
Cotterell was selected by the judges because of his pioneering, visionary, nearshore outsourcing business model. Of particular interest to the judging panel, was Endava’s Romanian and Moldovan operation — which is enjoying rapid, sustainable, growth.
Also noted was the fact that Cotterell has made a significant contribution to the development of an IT Service industry in Moldova — illustrating that Endava’s wider, community achievements go beyond the success of its own enterprise. Cotterell will now represent the London & South region in the award’s UK finals.
John Cotterell commented, “The award would not be possible without the great work of Endava’s magnificent team. We strive to deliver high quality software and services to blue chip clients and our growth is now attracting the attention of more companies looking for outsourcing solutions.”
