Leading Technology Solutions Partner, Advania UK, has completed the integration of CCS Media and Servium, a pivotal milestone solidifying its status in the UK technology market. With these strategic acquisitions, Advania UK's turnover now reaches an impressive £452 million, marking a substantial 3.3x increase compared to the previous year. The company has also expanded its client base, now nearing 10,000, and grown its workforce to over 1,500 employees across 20 locations in the UK, Ireland, South Africa, and the U.S.

This move positions Advania among the largest Technology Solutions Partners in the UK, equipped to deliver a broad spectrum of cloud-managed services, software, and hardware. Its partnerships with leading vendors like Cisco, Dell, HP, HPE, Lenovo, and Microsoft significantly enhance its offerings. At the group level, Advania's recent acquisition of the Nordic consultancy, The AI Framework, further strengthens its capabilities.

Advania's CEO, Geoffrey Kneen, emphasised the significance of these integrations by stating, "This is more than just the bringing together of our three businesses. It's the launch of a new kind of technology partner". With the accumulated strengths of Advania, CCS Media, and Servium, the company is poised to elevate its capabilities and customer satisfaction to unprecedented levels.

According to Kneen, the incorporation of "the cutting-edge AI transformation capabilities of The AI Framework" marks the creation of a comprehensive IT partner for UK enterprises. This strategic move is set to equip businesses for AI-driven transformation and growth, facilitating unparalleled choice, value, and expertise, as well as offering a cohesive approach to digital transformation with a trusted partner.
