They said: “The whole team at Optimising IT have worked together over the last year, focusing on clear goals, and it’s fantastic to be recognised for this.”

Optimising IT was awarded BCorp certification in 2023 recognising its commitment to sustainability

“Being a sustainable business and looking after the planet is something that is really important to us as a business, so it is great to have been recognised for our efforts. Of course, none of this would have been possible without the support of a great team, and at Optimising IT we really do have an epic team of dedicated people who I am immensely proud of.”

The firm which offers multiple services to local businesses including IT consultancy, cloud servicing, cyber security and managed IT services was awarded the coveted BCorp certification in 2023 for its commitment to sustainability and customer and staff satisfaction.

The award  ceremony is expected to bring together influential leaders in business, education and government to recognise and celebrate business success, supported by the area’s important professionals and advisors.
