Cliff Cooper, the Chairman and Founder of Orange Amplification, has just been awarded as World Finance Magazine’s “Entrepreneur of the Year 2015” in Electronics for Western Europe. The magazine, published by World News Media, started the awards in 2007 to recognize individuals whose creative outlook, strong leadership and ability to drive through both successes and failures has led to business growth.
The British company has, in the last few years, developed the patented VT1000 Valve Tester, a new guitar amp technology “DIVO” (Dynamic Intelligent Valve Optimization), the “OPC,” an Orange personal computer, the “Crush Pro” amp series, which proved beyond doubt there is a place for solid state technology in guitar amplifiers. There is also the patented “Orange Musicboard,” which is set to redefine how music theory is taught in schools. Orange has also recently been granted a patent on their new “Twister” cable.
The continued success of Orange Music Electronic Company Ltd. has also been recognized in other ways. Between 2006 and 2012, it was awarded three separate Queen’s Awards for Enterprise and International Trade (Export).
