You may have noticed from our newsletter (sign up here) and podcast (listen here or click play just below) that we’re celebrating our second birthday at 11:FS.

Armed with the growing awareness of the impact wellbeing can have on employees, businesses and the obvious link between positive workplace culture and productivity, I’m here to bust the myth that every start-up has a cut-throat environment which grinds down its employees.

The One to Watch award is given to the company with the firmest foundations onto which it can build truly digital services in the next 12 months.
