Paxman win Medilink Export Award!

We are delighted to announce that Paxman won the ‘UK Trade and Investment Export Achievement Award,’ at the Medilink Yorkshire and Humber Healthcare Business Awards in July 2010. Awards were handed out as part of Medilink’s Y&H annual Innovation Day, the region’s leading healthcare networking event, held at the Royal Armouries in Leeds.

Over the past year Paxman has seen a 66% increase in export sales, as well as a 65% increase in new markets. With over 900 scalp cooling systems now in use worldwide, we received the award as recognition for these outstanding achievements.

Speaking at the event Managing Director of Medilink Y&H, Kevin Kiely, said: “Today’s event clearly highlights the buoyancy of the Health Technologies sector, and specifically the continued success and innovative capacity of Yorkshire Health Technology companies.”

Richard Paxman, our Operations Director, added: “It has been a very successful year for us, particularly in terms of our international expansion, so it’s fantastic that this hard work has been recognised. We hope to continue going from strength to strength with our export strategy and remain the world’s leading provider of scalp coolers.”
