Discover how Bluecube evolved into a leading Managed Service Provider (MSP) in 2025, with London expansion, cyber security advances, and plans for ISO 27001, CREST certification & AI innovation in 2026. Bluecube Managing Director, Paul Reames shares his thoughts on the year ahead.
How Bluecube Became a Leading Managed Service Provider (MSP) in 2025
As we step into 2026, it’s the perfect time to reflect on what has been an incredible year for Bluecube and share our vision for the year ahead. While our journey into managed IT services began back in 2022 and accelerated with the acquisition of Techbox Managed IT Services in 2023, it was 2025 that truly marked a turning point. Last year, we saw more growth in managed IT services and IT support than in any other area of the business, a clear sign that our strategy to evolve from a communications provider into a full-service business technology partner was the right path.
This transformation has positioned Bluecube as a true Managed Service Provider (MSP) – a comprehensive managed IT company delivering IT services across the UK from our Midlands and London locations. For our clients, this means streamlined operations, cost savings, and peace of mind knowing their entire technology ecosystem is managed by our growing team of experts. By consolidating services under one provider, businesses benefit from reduced overheads and access to specialist expertise without the cost of in-house hires. Our evolution now encompasses unified communications, cloud telephony, VoIP solutions, and business telephony systems – giving clients seamless, integrated communication tools alongside managed IT services. From business mobile solutions and business phone systems to complete network infrastructure, we provide the connectivity businesses need to operate efficiently.
Our Commitment to Cyber Security and Data Protection
In today’s landscape of escalating cyber security threats and cyber-crime, our dedicated cyber security team deploys advanced protection measures, conducts regular cyber security audits, and implements safe practices to safeguard our clients’ critical business data. From email security for businesses to proactive threat monitoring, we work tirelessly to ensure comprehensive protection. Our planned CREST penetration testing certification and ISO 27001 accreditation for 2026 will further strengthen our position as a security-first managed IT company.
2025: IT Services Expansion, London Office & Award Recognition
One of the biggest milestones of 2025 was the opening of our London office in Islington, enabling us to better serve our growing client base in the South as a multi-location Managed Service Provider. The expansion reflects our commitment to being closer to our clients and delivering exceptional IT support wherever they are. And we’re not stopping there – the next 12-18 months will bring further expansion plans to strengthen our presence across the UK.
Another highlight of 2025 was being runners-up at the Comms Business Awards for Best Connectivity Solution, narrowly missing out to Cellhire. Competing with industry giants like Cellhire, TP Link and BT to achieve this recognition was a proud moment for the entire Bluecube team and thoroughly deserved for the complex unified communications solution we designed and deployed for our client.
We also saw unprecedented success in winning opportunities in the 50–200 user space, a segment where businesses demand robust, scalable managed IT services. This success is a direct result of our investment in growing our team and implementing automation tools that enable us to deliver exceptional customer service efficiently and consistently.
Our commitment to cloud infrastructure and cloud communications services continues to be a cornerstone of our offering as an MSP cloud specialist. By leveraging the cloud, our Midlands-based IT support team can seamlessly service clients anywhere in the UK, ensuring flexibility and reliability.
What’s Next: 2026 Plans for Growth and Innovation
If 2025 was about laying the foundation, 2026 will be about building on it. We predict another year of fast growth as we continue to enhance our internal systems and service offerings. Here’s what’s on the horizon:
ISO 27001 and CREST Penetration Testing Certification
We plan to achieve CREST penetration testing certification and ISO 27001, reinforcing our commitment to cyber security and data protection. These accreditations will give clients even greater confidence in our ability to host and manage their data securely.
Business Intelligence Services
We’re introducing Business Intelligence services to help clients make sense of their data, monitor key metrics, and make informed business decisions with powerful analytics tools.
Cyber Essentials Certification for All Clients
Ensuring all Bluecube managed IT clients meet the Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus certification standards, establishing a baseline of cyber security protection across our entire client base.
AI Unlocked Summer Event
We will be hosting another summer event focused on deploying and using AI to improve business processes and productivity, helping businesses unlock the potential of artificial intelligence.
These initiatives reflect our dedication to staying ahead of the curve and delivering IT support consulting and managed IT solutions that empower our clients to thrive in an increasingly digital world.
Finally, a BIG thank you
None of this would have been possible without the incredible efforts of the Bluecube team, our trusted network of partners and vendors, and most importantly, our valued clients. Your support and collaboration have been instrumental in driving this exciting period of growth and success.
As we look forward to 2026, we’re filled with optimism and enthusiasm. With new managed IT services, cyber security certifications, and innovations on the horizon, we’re confident that the coming year will be even more transformative.
Thank you and here’s to a bright future!
