The Eastern region’s only world-class commercial data centre has been chosen as one of the 50 most exciting and promising businesses in Norfolk and Suffolk to watch over coming years.
Norwich-based MIGSOLV have joined the Future50 list of bold and bright businesses chosen by local publishers Archant and sponsors including Barclays, the UEA and Lovewell Blake.
“This is great recognition for our whole team” says David Manning, MIGSOLV’s Managing Director. “They’ve worked hard to deliver a first-class service, allowing our customers to achieve their own goals, whilst we protect their data. It’s a well-deserve accolade for everyone.”
MIGSOLV’s Gatehouse data centre in Norwich is the region’s only purpose-built commercial data centre, providing space, power, cooling and physical security for organisation’s computer servers and IT equipment. Renovated at a cost of £12 million in 2012, it helps businesses increase their resilience by protecting their data against threats including terrorism, power failure and extreme weather.
The Future50 list details companies large and small who stand out as the most innovative and ambitious in the region. Those on the list will gain access to business support and become part of an exclusive group of businesses aiming to help each other succeed. MIGSOLV joins a number of digital and creative businesses demonstrating the growing technology sector in Norwich and Norfolk.
“As well as technology businesses, our region is home to companies of all types simply using IT to do what they do better” adds David. “We give their data the safest and most flexible home whilst they get on with being successful and contributing to the local economy.”
Primarily used for colocation, the data centre is home to computer servers and hardware owned by businesses themselves. As part of MIGSOLV’s 2018 plans, they are looking to launch a range of managed services providing ‘pay-as-you-go’ data storage so smaller businesses can protect and grow their data with ease.
“Future50 is a great opportunity to gain exposure and showcase what businesses in the East can do” concludes David. “As our role is to protect business’s critical data, we’re looking forward to helping ambitious businesses both on and outside Future50 to realise their own goals with peace-of-mind.”
