Affairs 2009-05-14T08:42:27+00:00 Pete wins Innovation for Extremes Award #When:11:43:29Z We first met Pete last summer. Curiously we were never actually interviewing him for a job, but his Fig-4 axes impressed us so much we thought we would offer him one. Despite some confusion over his origin he has integrated himself seamlessly into our small team.. although he still hasn’t introduced us to his coffee guy. It is great to see Pete get the recognition he deserves by winning the Innov_ex award and we look forward to seeing many more of his designs in the Alpkit range. People 2009-05-07T11:43:29+00:00
