Symphony Commerce Named Finalist in Northern Tech Awards Top 100 for 2026

Stockport-based B2B ecommerce platform recognised among the fastest-growing technology companies in the North of the UK in the 2026 Northern Tech Awards.

Symphony Commerce has been named a Top 100 Finalist in the prestigious Northern Tech Awards 2026, recognising the fastest-growing and most ambitious technology companies across the North of the UK.

Now in its thirteenth year, the Northern Tech Awards, led by GP Bullhound, celebrates the strength and diversity of the region’s technology ecosystem. The Top 100 ranking highlights companies demonstrating exceptional growth, innovation, and commercial traction over the past three years.

Symphony Commerce’s inclusion reflects a period of significant momentum for the Stockport-headquartered business, driven by a strategic pivot to B2B ecommerce, continued product innovation, and strong commercial performance. The company specialises in building advanced digital commerce ecosystems for manufacturers, wholesalers, and distributors, helping them navigate the complexities of modern digital transformation.

The recognition places Symphony Commerce alongside some of the North’s most influential technology success stories, with previous winners including Skyscanner, The Hut Group, and Matillion.

Winners will be announced at an exclusive awards ceremony held at the Imperial War Museum North on Thursday 23 April, bringing together founders, CEOs, and investors from across the Northern technology community.

In addition to the Top 100 ranking, the evening will recognise standout businesses and leaders across a series of highly competitive categories, including Fastest Growing Company, Judges’ Innovation Award, Judges’ Award for Global Ambition, and the Overall Judges’ Award. These accolades highlight excellence not only in growth, but in leadership, culture, innovation, and global impact across the Northern tech ecosystem.

Matt Smith, CEO of Symphony Commerce, commented:

“Being recognised in the Northern Tech Awards Top 100 is a fantastic moment for the business and the team behind it. The North is home to some of the most ambitious and fast-growing technology companies in the UK, so to be included in this group is something we’re incredibly proud of.”

“Our focus has been on building a platform that genuinely supports the needs of manufacturers and distributors, businesses that operate with real complexity every day. This recognition reflects the progress we’ve made and the direction we’re heading as we continue to grow and innovate.”

The Northern Tech Awards have become a key benchmark for success in the UK’s digital economy, showcasing companies that are not only scaling rapidly but also shaping the future of technology outside London.
