Paul Starr, CEO & Owner of SEP2 has been named One to Watch in The LDC Top 50 Most Ambitious Business Leaders 2023.

Created by trusted investment partner LDC – part of Lloyds Banking Group, and supported by The Times, The LDC Top 50 champions the business leaders who are pushing for growth and building successful medium-sized businesses.

This year’s nominations were of an exceptionally high calibre and the competition was fierce, showcasing the drive and determination that unites business leaders across the UK.

The leaders featured in The LDC Top 50 are growing their businesses at home and overseas, making a positive contribution to society and driving progress against their sustainability goals. They hail from every corner of the UK and span every sector of the economy. Together, they employ more than 6,700 people and turn over more than £1.2bn.

The Ones to Watch are leaders making great strides and growing their businesses. They are excelling in their industries and making a positive impact on customers and employees, yet still show so much potential for future growth.

From their headquarters based in Leeds, and energetic sales operation in London, SEP2 we built their reputation on creating strong partnerships with world-class vendors, whilst providing the best cyber security service. SEP2’s commitment to excellence is exemplified by their team of skilled engineers, analysts, and consultants, who ensure our clients fully leverage the potential of their chosen cyber security solutions.

Paul Starr, CEO & Owner of SEP2 said: Our purpose is to work with our customers interests at heart to increase their cyber security protections in the best way possible, leveraging our core values of “Tech Driven. People Powered.”

John Garner, Managing Partner at LDC, said: “We started The LDC Top 50 six years ago to champion the remarkable success stories of medium-sized businesses, the unsung heroes of the British economy. Since then, we’ve received more than 3,000 nominations and celebrated more than 500 business leaders through the programme, surpassing all our expectations. The stories behind this year’s Ones to Watch really captured our attention and I’d like to congratulate them on their achievements so far. We’ve no doubt that this is only the beginning for each and every one of them!”
