Reaching 33rd on the FT1000 list places de Novo among the top UK firms, and makes the digital transformation pioneers the highest placed Welsh business on the entire list, and the 7th out of 215 firms in the IT / Consulting category.

We are incredibly proud to have become a leading name in the digital transformation space over the past five years – and we know there is an even brighter future ahead of us, building on the foundations we have laid down since 2021.”
