Trivandi has been awarded a King’s Award for Enterprise in International Trade. The global consultancy was among the 60th cohort of firms lauded for their impact exporting British expertise overseas.
Founded in 2013, Trivandi was created by the senior leadership team that planned, delivered and operated the more-than-120 venues and infrastructure hubs of the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games. Determined to put that hard-won expertise to work for a wider range of clients, the founders built a business with a clear ambition: to create experiences, better by sharing what they had learned, improving how complex projects are delivered, and helping host communities benefit long after the event itself.
What began with a handful of specialists in London has since grown, steadily and rapidly into a trusted partner for world leaders in sport, government and business delivering complex mega-events, venues and infrastructure globally. Trivandi today employs more than 100 permanent specialists across five global offices in London, Dubai, Riyadh, Brisbane and Los Angeles, supported by an Associate Network of more than 4,000 subject-matter experts.
In the years since London 2012, the team has worked on every Summer Olympic Games, multiple FIFA World Cups, Commonwealth Games and World Expos, alongside some of the world’s most iconic stadia, airports, government summits and visitor destinations.
James Bulley, one of the firm’s co-founders, said, “Receiving a King’s Award for Enterprise is a proud milestone for everyone at Trivandi. We founded this business in 2013 to share our knowledge and learnings from London 2012, in order to continually improve how complex projects are delivered, and help clients around the world create stronger, more lasting legacies. Today, our work spans sport, major events, venues and destinations across 30 countries. To have that effort recognised by His Majesty The King is a true honour, and one that belongs to every person who has helped build Trivandi into what it is today.”
King’s Awards
The King’s Award, in their 60th year, are one of the most prestigious business awards in the UK. Announced annually on the reigning British monarch’s birthday, the ceremony has been operating in various forms since 1966, with King Charles now handing out prizes to businesses that have achieved impressive growth in overseas markets over the last five years.
Categories span industries from construction and agriculture to vehicles and software, with winning businesses able to use the esteemed King’s Awards emblem for the next five years. Previous international trade category winners have often boosted their overseas sales thanks to the recognition.
The awards also often recognise members of the consulting industry, with TSC joining a select group of UK businesses honoured for their outstanding contribution to international growth, innovation and excellence. Previous winners from the professional services sector include Boyd Consultants, DCA Design International, Mason Advisory, Specialist Marine Consultants and Grant Thornton in 2018, Analysys Mason in 2021, and Q5 and The Sports Consultancy in 2025.
Paul May, co-founder and chair of Trivandi, added, “Britain has a remarkable record in delivering the world’s most demanding events on time, on budget and to a standard that endures. I’m enormously proud that Trivandi has been able to take that experience into international markets – not simply to advise from the outside, but to work alongside clients, partners and local teams to strengthen how major projects are delivered. Through our projects and through Trivandi Academy, we are helping host communities build the skills, confidence and capability to benefit from the transformational projects shaping their own countries. I am grateful to every member of the team who has helped earn this honour.”
