Keepme Named Supplier of the Year at the ukactive Awards 2026
We are proud to announce that Keepme has been named Supplier of the Year at the ukactive Awards 2026. The ceremony was held on Thursday 8 October at the ICC in Birmingham.
The ukactive Awards celebrate the best of the UK fitness and activity sector and the people behind it. This year’s shortlist was packed with suppliers doing great work for operators and their members. To win in that company makes the recognition mean even more.
Recognition for the Whole Team
The award reflects steady delivery across the whole business. That includes our engineers, AI architects and product team, and it also includes client success, support, sales, marketing and operations.
Ian Mullane, Keepme CEO and Founder, commented on the win:
“Awards like this are the result of consistent performance across an entire organisation. This is what happens when talented people care deeply about their work and hold themselves to a high standard every day. I get to see how much thought, judgement and sheer effort sits behind what we put into the market. Most of it happens without fanfare, long before an award arrives. Winning Supplier of the Year at the ukactive Awards is well-earned recognition for the whole team.”
Steffie Bryant, Keepme President, added:
“This one is for the team. They turn up every single day and put more heart into their work than any job description could ever ask for. Big launches, early starts, the client call that runs an hour over because they want to get it right. Seeing them recognised at this level means the absolute world to me.”
A Partnership With Our Clients
Keepme builds Antares’ AI agents together with the operators who use them. Many of the platform’s best ideas came straight from client conversations.
“To our clients, this award is just as much yours. You trusted us with your members, your teams and your growth, and that’s not something we ever take for granted. So many of the things we’re proudest of started with one of you saying ‘what if we tried this?’ Being a real partner to you, rather than just another supplier, is what gets us out of bed in the morning. We’re only getting started together.”
Steffie Bryant, President, Keepme
“Grateful to our clients for the trust they place in us and the way they continue to challenge us.”
Ian Mullane, CEO and Founder, Keepme
