ALP Synergy Ltd is proud to announce that we have been named Micro Business of the Year at the Torfaen, Monmouthshire & Blaenau Gwent Business Awards 2025. The team is still buzzing from the recognition, which reflects not only the work we deliver but the values and partnerships that shape everything we do.
Why This Award Matters to Us
As a small, family-run business built on collaboration, sustainability and practical support, this recognition means a great deal. It celebrates both what we do and how we do it – working in partnership, staying true to our values and focusing on long-term impact.
Our Work with SMEs and Local Authorities
For many years, we have been helping small businesses to start, grow and thrive. At the same time, we support local authorities and public bodies with their economic development and sustainability goals.
Our core team is small by design, but we are amplified by a brilliant network of associates who bring specialist expertise, local insight and real-world experience. Together, we have:
- Supported thousands of SMEs
- Helped shape local business support ecosystems
- Delivered projects tackling major challenges such as climate resilience, natural capital and sustainable growth
Why Micro Businesses Matter
Winning in the Micro Business of the Year category is especially meaningful. As a micro business ourselves, we understand the real pressures smaller enterprises face. This experience energises our ambition to support 10,000 small businesses by 2030.
This award reassures us that our blend of strategic thinking, hands-on delivery and values-led work is making a genuine difference to the communities we serve.

We were honoured to be shortlisted alongside three excellent finalists:
- Powell Bespoke Interiors – creating high-quality, beautifully crafted interiors
