History
Formed in 1987, BSG began in its trading history as an IT reseller, selling hardware and
software to its clients in London and the South East. In 1996, as well as continuing to pursue
sales through the reseller market, the Group also took the decision to expand its capabilities
and reposition itself as a provider of client-focused e-business solutions.
Having purchased Webgenerics Ltd - a provider of hosting and ASP software - the Group floated
on the London Stock Exchange in July 2000 as a constituent of the TechMark Index, raising £15m
to finance the ongoing development of the group. This development included considerable investment
in its datacentre infrastructure which now acts as a robust platform for its current managed service
offerings.
The Group continued its expansion with the purchase of the Experience Design team of Atomic
Tangerine in June 2001, which extended the user experience capabilities of the consulting practice
and grew further in August 2004 with the acquisition of the managed hosting and IT maintenance s
ervices of GNS Europe Ltd. The latter acquisition underlining the group's continued strategic push
into the managed services arena.
With these combined capabilities and the wealth of experience which accompanies a solid trading
history, BSG is proud to be one of the few IT providers who can truly offer to design, deploy and
operate an entire IT solution for any of its clients.
