We’ve Won a Top Industry Award!

We have big news at Start Tech HQ…

We’ve scooped the ‘UK & Ireland Solution Provider Spotlight Award’ at the CompTIA Community Spotlight Awards. This prestigious award recognises excellence and leadership in the technology industry.

Ian, Kieran, and Jordon were there to collect the award at the ceremony in Birmingham.

Computing Technology Industry Association

CompTIA is a leading voice worldwide for the $5 trillion global information technology ecosystem. To win the solution provider award, we had to demonstrate leadership, excellence and innovation towards our organisation and clients, as well as being a true solutions provider. 

MJ Shoer, chief community officer at CompTIA, said, “The awards are judged purely on the merit of each application. We enlist a prestigious panel of judges from outside the awarding region to ensure the highest integrity and objectivity when choosing the winners.”

Managing director, Ian Groves, was asked to speak at the event, which welcomed tech and IT companies from across the UK. He said, “We are over the moon to pick up the Solution Provider Spotlight Award. There isn’t a more poignant award for us to win as an MSP. We were up against some big names – both in size and reputation, so this is a huge achievement, one which we’ll be celebrating for a long time. I believe it will change the way we’re viewed on a national scale.

“We are having one of our best years in our 23-year history having been named as one of Britain’s 50 Best Managed IT Companies and now scooping this important award. The business is going from strength to strength – our average year on year growth for the last three years is 39%, which is brilliant.

“I hope this award success helps more businesses find out about our work. We pride ourselves on providing a proactive approach to IT, where we lead with advice and solutions to improve efficiency, rather than the reactive approach that has been the industry standard for so long.”
