How it all started
BCN Group was formed in 2009 by Simon Kelf and Matt Smith, born out of a mutual drive to help organisations work smarter, faster, and more efficiently through technology.
Simon and Matt understood that many businesses experience fear, uncertainty and doubt when it comes to technology. The truth is, Simon and Matt never set out to sell technology. They set out to guide organisations to a smarter way of working. In doing this, they have become one of the fastest-growing, most exciting technology solutions and services providers in the UK.
From their humble beginnings in Matt’s garage in Wilmslow, the business now has three sites across the north and 220 team members.
