Telecommunications specialist, Prime Connect, has been recognised for its innovative approach to market having been shortlisted in the Technology Entrepreneur of the Year category of the 2026 Allica Bank Great British Entrepreneur Awards.
Founded in 2011, Prime Connect delivers future-ready technology and communication solutions to UK businesses, property owners, landlords, lift companies, and multi-tenant environments, through its growing portfolio of specialist verticals.
Celebrating founders and businesses shaping the UK economy, The Great British Entrepreneur Awards – widely known as the “Grammys of Entrepreneurship” – shine a spotlight on those building ambitious, resilient, innovative businesses across 18 categories and 10 nations and regions.
The Technology Entrepreneur of the Year category recognises entrepreneurs using technology to solve meaningful problems.
Being shortlisted as a finalist reflects Prime Connect’s ability to identify underserved markets and build new, practical, specialist technology solutions around them. Rather than offering generic telecoms and connectivity products, Prime Connect has driven its growth around the needs of niche industries, where speed, reliability, and safety are critical.
While its specialist vertical, SIMSINLIFTS®, supports lift companies and building owners with reliable emergency lift telephony in the build-up to the post-landline era, its latest solution, Landlord Connect©, enables private, HMO, and Airbnb property managers to meet the demands of their occupants with fast, reliable broadband services.
Speaking about this latest recognition, Co-Founder, Chaim Grunfeld, said: “This is a proud moment for us. Business has always been about solving real problems for our customers, especially where communications technology has failed to keep pace with what people actually need. We’ve grown from listening closely to niche markets, understanding the pressures people face, and building solutions that make operations safer, simpler, and more reliable. To have that recognised by the Great British Entrepreneur Awards is a true honour and gives us even more confidence in the direction we’re taking”.
Now expanding into new capabilities, Prime Connect is on track to accelerate its purpose-driven growth by 22.7% within the next 12 months alone.
The winners of the 2026 Allica Bank Great British Entrepreneur Awards will be announced on Monday 16th November 2026 at an awards ceremony at Grosvenor House in London.
