Dame Harriett Baldwin, MP for West Worcestershire, met with D-RisQ’s managing director, Nick Tudor, at a reception at the House of Commons to celebrate the businesses chosen for the programme.
Dame Harriett said: “D-RisQ is an incredibly ambitious company with deep technological expertise and it came as no surprise that it was selected to take part in this important space initiative.
“I’ve met Nick several times at his Malvern base but it was great to see him at the Houses of Parliament as one of the UK’s leading companies in this sector.
“The company is a real star of the Malvern business community and now its ambitions are quite literally out of this world.”
Mr Tudor said: “It was great to see Dame Harriett in Parliament and to have the opportunity to discuss our plans for reducing the cost of software development in the space and other sectors.
“It’s been great to have her support over a number of years.”
