Coming in third on our 2013 list and with a hugely impressive top five position again this year, the enterprise mobile platform developer has continued to enjoy stellar success. Self-funded and profitable from day one, (a very rare and impressive feat), Senscraft generated revenues of almost £1.5m in 2013 with £583,375 net profit.

Drawing on both founders’ years of experience in the mobile and digital space, the tech start-up provides an all-in-one service for brands wishing to develop a mobile platform, helping them maximise their sales across mobile channels without the hassle of setting it up themselves. Now with customers spanning 10 countries across the globe, Senscraft’s founders have more than fulfilled their expectation that they could “make much more important economic contributions to the UK economy by creating [their] own company than [they] could as employees.” Expecting 100% growth across the next fiscal year as they plan to accelerate the expansion of their client pool by targeting new sectors and verticals, Senscraft is a start-up with the potential to become a big name in the mobile space.
