The ranking shines a spotlight on the most successful sectors and companies in the UK, championing good growth and the equitable democratisation of business opportunity in the UK.

The top five companies from Yorkshire and The Humber whose phenomenal growth has secured them a place in the UK’s Growth Index 2024 are:

(No. 57) Harold Newsome, structural steel specialists based in Leeds, with a CAGR of 82.26 per cent

Speaking about the regional results, Orlando Martins, founder and CEO of ORESA said, “The fact that London and the regions around it can produce high-growth champions in so many sectors year after year is testament to its strength in depth, not just in tech and fintech.

“Unfortunately, this seems to mean that the further you get from London, the less likely you are to see high-growth businesses. Lack of skills, insufficient infrastructure and remoteness from investors all contribute to a relative scarcity of regional growth ecosystems. So it is certainly encouraging to see more representation from companies in the North and the South West, despite these factors,” he continued.
