June Medical is one of 48 organisations to be recognised for their excellence in innovation in this year’s Queen’s Awards for Enterprise.
Now in its 55th year, the Queen’s Awards for Enterprise are the most prestigious business awards in the country – rewarding only the most outstanding achievements – with winning businesses able to use the esteemed Queen’s Awards emblem for the next five years.
Based in High Wycombe, UK, June Medical delivers medical innovations to address unmet surgical needs, such as the Galaxy II single-use surgical retractor. This latest development reduces the need for extra staff during surgery, and lowers the risk of patient-to-patient cross-contamination. The product has been well received by surgeons across the UK and internationally, and its widespread success has earned June Medical this prestigious award.
Angela Spang, CEO and founder of June Medical, pioneered the Galaxy II range and is delighted with the honour the company has received. She commented: “This award is the result of all the hard work from everyone in the team. Our vision is to positively impact patients’ lives by making surgery easier for the surgeons and nurses, and safer for every patient. Being recognised today for our work will help the company continue this quest.”
