Ram Gupta, CEO of Nybble, has been recognised as one of The LDC Top 50 Most Ambitious Business Leaders for 2024, in partnership with The Times.

Created by trusted investment partner LDC – part of Lloyds Banking Group, The Top 50 celebrates entrepreneurs demonstrating remarkable ambition, and is now in its seventh year.

This year the programme received more than 700 nominations showcasing the exceptional individuals building successful and growing businesses right across the UK.

The business leaders featured in The LDC Top 50 for 2024 are making a real impact by creating jobs, promoting social equality, championing sustainability, expanding internationally and integrating purpose into their business practices.

They operate from 39 towns and cities across the UK and span every sector of the economy, whilst collectively they employ 5,146 people and generate revenues of more than £1.1bn.

Nybble, based in Blackburn, is a leading provider of managed IT, audio visual, and cyber services, catering to a diverse range of national and international clients.

Known for its customer-first ethos, innovative technology solutions and commitment to delivering an outstanding customer experience, Nybble also takes pride in its strong social values, which are deeply embedded in the core of the business.

With a mission to create profit with purpose, Nybble drives innovation, enhances customer outcomes and strives to improve lives.

Ram Gupta, CEO of Nybble, said: “I am truly humbled to be recognised among such talented and driven individuals as part of the UK’s Top 50 Ambitious Business People.  

"This achievement is not mine, it is a reflection of the hard work, dedication, and support of the entire team at Nybble who work tirelessly to assist our amazing customers.

"I believe ambition is not just about personal success, but about the positive impact we can create for our communities, our industries, and the people around us.

"We are not done yet, we look forward to expanding beyond horizons with humility, respect and determination. The future is bright for Nybble and all who have supported us over the years.”

John Garner, managing partner at LDC, added: “It’s been seven years since we launched The LDC Top 50 and in that time we’ve had the privilege of meeting some truly remarkable people.

"Our business leaders for 2024 show relentless drive and determination in their growth ambitions, and I’d like to congratulate them on everything they’ve achieved so far. This is certainly not the end of their success and we can’t wait to see what the future holds.”

Lancashire Business View spoke to Ram for the Big Interview feature and his father came to the UK from India in the 1960s, where had had been a high court barrister, and moved to Blackburn from London in the 1970s, finding work as a machine operator in a factory in the town while studying and attaining a first-class honours degree and MSc in maths and computing.
