London, UK - QuantSpark and Tech Against Terrorism CEO Adam Hadley CBE has been awarded the prestigious 2024 Serial Entrepreneur Award, sponsored by Barclays Private Bank. This distinguished recognition celebrates Hadley's exceptional track record of launching, managing, and successfully navigating multiple business ventures.
The award acknowledges an individual who demonstrates extraordinary innovation, resilience, and leadership excellence in the entrepreneurial landscape. As the leader of both QuantSpark and Tech Against Terrorism, Adam Hadley CBE is quick to emphasise that this achievement is a reflection of the teams that comprise both organisations.
At the heart of QuantSpark's and Tech Against Terrorism's identity is an unwavering commitment to entrepreneurial thinking. This approach enables these organisations to challenge conventional approaches, innovate fearlessly, and deliver cutting-edge solutions that drive meaningful change for stakeholders across various industries and government.
The Serial Entrepreneur Award recognises Hadley's exceptional ability to identify opportunities, navigate complex landscapes, and lead transformative ventures.

Hadley enthusiastically highlights the need for the government to play a more active supporting role in promoting entrepreneurialism in the UK:
"While both organisations have different visions for different stakeholders, they serve as examples of how an entrepreneurial mindset and approach can help solve complex challenges, which is becoming increasingly necessary for economic growth, problem-solving, and pushing the boundaries of what's possible."
Barclays Private Bank's sponsorship of the award highlights the significant impact of innovative entrepreneurship in today's rapidly evolving business ecosystem.
