cmypitch.com, the UK small business community which connects entrepreneurs with each other, investors and service providers, today announced that its ever-growing customer base has voted Instant Offices the second most innovative company of 2008. The recent poll invited cmypitch.com’s members to rate companies based on the level of innovation demonstrated in their business model and business strategies, as well as their key business successes and USPs.

Instant Offices is the number one internet gateway to flexible offices worldwide, and a pioneer and innovator in its field. It has experienced 100% year-on-year growth for the past five years, and has grown from 12 employees in 2003 to 80 employees today. Much of its staggering growth has been fuelled by innovation. Instant Offices was the first company to consolidate the fragmented serviced office space, at www.instantoffices.com. It was the first company to identify the demand among corporations for fully-equipped short to medium-term offices, and to create a supply to meet that demand. The company is constantly re-inventing its working processes, business models, and technology to better serve its customers.

Emmett Kilduff, CEO & Founder of cmypitch stated, “Much of the phenomenal business success story that is Instant Offices has been powered by innovation. We are pleased to see this reflected in the results of our recent poll, and congratulate the team at Instant Offices on their success!”

Commenting on the impressive award, Rob Hamilton, Founder and CEO of Instant Offices Group, said, “We are pleased to see our ongoing commitment to innovation recognised by the start-up companies and SMEs that form the prestigious membership of cmypitch.com. Innovation underpins all our activities and we do everything we can to nurture it at all levels of the business. Moreover, since our flat company structure gives us all the agility of a much smaller organisation while being a truly global one, we can implement sound innovations quickly. In this way, we are constantly improving the quality of the service that we provide to our customers worldwide. There are many more innovations in the pipeline at the moment; just watch this space!”
