“The rising importance of IT, digital transformation and cloud adoption, combined with BCN’s fantastic customer reputation, means that BCN is incredibly well positioned to further expand its capability, geographical presence and customer offering both organically and through M&A.”

Adam Rudd, partner at Beech Tree Private Equity, added, “It has been a fantastic journey working alongside the BCN team and together we have built a business that we can all be proud of.

“When we backed them in 2018, we could see the potential to create a market leading Microsoft partner capable of supporting the entirety of a customer’s digital transformation journey.

“Through an alignment of our shared vision and a focused execution of our organic and M&A strategy, we have achieved what we set out to do.”
