St David Award

The multi award-winning Sunday Times 100 Welsh technology company, based in Langstone and led by MASANAS founder Mark Sweeny, has been awarded the prestigious St David Award by the Welsh Government in recognition of its outstanding contribution to the Welsh economy.

The St David Awards are the national awards of Wales, celebrating the extraordinary achievements of its people. The company's recognition reflects years of sustained growth, job creation, and a determined commitment to keeping world-class technology talent rooted in Wales.

"This award belongs to every member of our team and to the nation that made it possible," said Mark Sweeny. "It is proof that ambition, when it stays at home, can compete on any stage in the world. That belief is the very foundation of MASANAS."

For MASANAS, the venture arm of the Sweeny family, the recognition underscores a guiding conviction: that Wales is a premier destination to build, invest, and grow. The award strengthens our resolve to develop entrepreneurial talent across the country and to reinvest success directly into Welsh communities.

As MASANAS continues to establish its four pillars of advisory, business support, investment, and community projects, milestones like the St David Award affirm the path ahead, championing Cymru, and proving that enduring enterprise is grown at home.
