100 years of leadership and BE is part of the story

The BE Company is proud to be featured in Monarchy and Democracy: A History of Leadership, a landmark publication produced by the History of Parliament Trust and St James's House, launched at Westminster Abbey on 9 June 2026.

The fully illustrated, 750-page title explores the evolving roles of the Crown and Parliament in the leadership of the UK and the Commonwealth over the past 100 years. Written by a team of prominent academics and bestselling authors including royal experts Robert Jobson, Russell Myers and Katie Nicholl, the publication profiles organisations selected for their relevance to the themes of leadership, innovation, sustainability and governance.

The BE Company is honoured to be among them.

The launch event was attended by more than 500 guests, including leading figures from parliament, industry and the media, and was followed by the London Press Club Summer Garden Party, attended by over 600 guests.

Sath Ganesarajah, CEO of The BE Company, said: "We are building infrastructure for one of the most consequential technological shifts of our time. To be recognised alongside institutions that have shaped the course of British leadership over the past century is both humbling and energising. It reflects our belief that what we are building at BE matters, not just commercially, but for the long-term fabric of the UK's digital and economic future."

Dr Jennifer Davey, Director at the History of Parliament Trust, said: "The book profiles a selection of organisations invited to join the project based on their relevance to the themes of leadership, innovation, sustainability and governance."

Monarchy and Democracy: A History of Leadership is available in both print and e-book formats, and is being distributed to key political, institutional and educational audiences across the UK, Europe and the Commonwealth.
