Our Leadership Team

Everyone at Innovate IT is passionate about technology, specifically simplifying solutions through innovation to provide IT that is available to everyone. We only use high quality, market leading components and aim to match this with our customer service.

We have a relaxed, but professional approach to client engagements, and prefer more of a knowledge exchange than a sales pitch. We love nothing more than chatting to techies and discussing the future implications of today’s discoveries, so feel free to get in touch, we also invite you to guest blog your thoughts.
