Nomad Wheelchairs Wins Design Management Europe AwardA disabled man who set up a company making wheelchairs because he was frustrated with the lack of choice available to users has won an award.
Mark Owen and his brother Jon established Nomad in Ciliau Aeron, near Lampeter, just six months ago.
The pair scooped a Design Management Europe (DME) prize, beating companies from France, the Netherlands, Luxembourg and Belgium.
It is believed to be the first mobility company to win a DME award.
The brothers picked up the award at a ceremony in Eindhoven, in the Netherlands, after winning the "first time design project" category for their wheelchairs.
