An Oxfordshire businessman has been ranked among the top young entrepeneurs in the country.

Managing director Darren Elliott, 30, of Gemini Translations from Didcot, has won an entry in the Who's Who of Britain's Young Entrepeneurs.

His business offers translation services for international business and his turnover has doubled every year, since he began trading six years ago, to reach £300,000 in 2001.

Mr Elliott said: "We are still a small business in a fast-growing industry."

Most of Gemini's business is with the pharmaceutical industry, and the firm offers translations in 22 languages.

To strengthen the firm's image and improve customer service, Gemini's three websites have been upgraded, through a £600 grant from Business Link's internet enhancement fund, to offer online estimates.
