BioTek Instruments Receives President’s ‘E’ Award for Export Successes

BioTek Instruments is proud to announce receipt of the President’s ‘E’ Award for Exports, presented by US Secretary of Commerce, Penny Pritzker, at a ceremony in Washington, DC today. The President’s ‘E’ Award is the highest recognition that a US entity can receive for export activities, and BioTek is one of 123 companies honoured by the US Department of Commerce for their significant contributions to support American exports.

“The ‘E’ Awards Committee was very impressed with BioTek Instruments’ innovative scientific instrument technologies. The company’s development of a business model that emphasises exports as a core part of its business was also particularly notable,” said Secretary Pritzker in her congratulatory letter to BioTek announcing its selection as an award recipient.

Peter Weith, BioTek’s Vice President of Marketing and Sales, received the honour, commenting: “Conducting business in a global market is often complex, yet our BioTek family is motivated every day to make a difference in the American economy growth, create local jobs, and impact the entire world in a positive way.” He also noted that exports account for a significant percentage of the privately held Company’s annual revenues.
