AIS Technology's Information Centre

The UK is experiencing a severe shortage of IT talent, a crisis that has deep implications for businesses across every sector. As of 2025, this shortfall is no longer a problem isolated to technology firms. It is now a national concern with real economic consequences. But amid this growing challenge, one solution is proving essential: managed service providers (MSPs). These companies are helping businesses plug skill gaps.

In June 2025, the UK Government unveiled the Cyber Growth Action Plan (CGAP) a strategic initiative offering up to £16 million in funding to bolster domestic cyber innovation. (1). AIS tech, as a leading IT support company in Essex, is ideally positioned to help local SMEs harness these new opportunities.

If there’s one thing the past few years have made clear, it’s that flexibility is no longer a luxury but it is now a necessity. For businesses in 2025, hybrid and multi-cloud strategies have moved from ‘emerging trends’ to standard operating models. The days of relying on a single cloud provider or worse, a purely on-premises setup are rapidly fading. Enter: the Managed Service Provider (MSP).

Before embarking on your search for a London IT support company, it’s essential to understand your specific needs.
