Celebrating our 10th year in business together, we&rsquo;ve collectively moved from a broom-cupboard office to a multimillion pound company with global customers and over 40 colleagues. It&rsquo;s been an interesting journey to date. For instance,    We found our first employee on Gumtree  We started with a significant financial investment of &pound;0  We considered the financial crash in 2008 to be a sign and a door-opener    So &ndash; as you can see &ndash; we&rsquo;ve not taken any easy roads or short-cuts to where we find ourselves today. With a small team, we began to build our business on the same beliefs that we still hold very dear today. And that&rsquo;s what makes integrity one of our core values. Steadily, we&rsquo;ve increased in headcount, revenue and profit. While learning some harsh and valuable lessons in business along the way.    &ldquo;Our business has grown incrementally over the years, by simply doing things properly.&rdquo;  Steven Forrest, CEO
  
Why make a brand change now?  Following our recent 10th anniversary, it was time for us to make a change. This coincides with completing a thorough competitive market analysis and a brutally honest review of all aspects of our business with our brand performance partner, Precept.  With their help, we&rsquo;ve undergone a full re-brand that we feel now fully represents where we&rsquo;ve come from, who we are, what we stand for and where we&rsquo;re going.  Internally, we&rsquo;ve corresponded this with a restructuring of our leadership team. As well as the acquisition and re-working of our products and services portfolio to align with market demand. Further, we&rsquo;ve re-thought our entire back-office eco-system to improve processes and procedures in preparation for scale.    &ldquo;This whole process has enabled us to re-define our mission and our core values&rdquo;  Steven Forrest, CEO  Our re-brand has been fundamental to express our capabilities and ethos as a now 10-year-old company with global customers and market-leading partners.  How did you go about re-branding?  As with everything we do, we started with our most important asset &ndash; our people. After all, our brand is nothing without them. So, as part of our wider strategic objectives, we conducted 1-2-1 interviews and an anonymous employee survey. We received some invaluable feedback and insights that informed important brand decisions. It has allowed us to define and articulate our company mission and core values.  As far as how we now look, our brandmark is a global-like mark that represents acceleration, performance and data security. Our colour palette is warm, confident and timeless. The vibrancy reflects our forward-thinking and dynamic team. Even our typeface reflects us as a business. It&rsquo;s designed to express how new technology is made simple and easy.    What are Forfusion\'s company mission and core values?  Interestingly, our mission and core values have remained much the same. From our perspective, it&rsquo;s imperative that we take everything we&rsquo;ve learnt to date and continue to drive our business forward with our main asset &ndash; our team. Moving forward, we&rsquo;ll be executing our wider strategy with precision; with our mission and core values in mind.  Our mission is simple: We\'re accelerating business performance through market leading technologies and key partnerships. That means we&rsquo;re the perfect choice to help you realise your company&rsquo;s digital potential and put it into motion. Our core values are:    Integrity  Diligence  Flexibility  Committed  Ambition  Different    To find out more about what these mean for you, have a read of our brand mission page.  So, what\'s next for Forfusion?  The next steps are to use our new brand as an enabler, to work together with our company-wide strategy.  As ever, Forfusion is a refreshing alternative that puts its customers first and works together in a true partnership. We&rsquo;re excited for you to finally see our new brand &ndash; it&rsquo;s been a while in the making! And we&rsquo;re looking forward to continuing transforming business, together.

I&rsquo;ve architected complex designs, technology road-maps and risk mitigation strategies, for some of the largest blue-chip companies in the world. More recently, I&rsquo;ve been responsible for managing and executing a company acquisition, as well as developing the associated earn out mechanics.  Background  Prior to life in the commercial world, I spent my time working for the armed forces in some of the most hostile places on earth. Whilst serving, I worked extensively with computer networks, as well as designing blast walls to absorb rocket energy. I also worked as a specialised military diver and spent half my life underwater searching for dead bodies and other unpleasant things. To let off steam I spent much of my time on the judo mat and in the boxing ring, and in fact, participating in any physical and mental challenge that presented itself.  Favourite quote  This quote really resonates with me, as I feel it represents one of our most powerful core values, integrity.    &ldquo;A lot of people are afraid to tell the truth, to say no. That\'s where toughness comes into play. Toughness is not being a bully. It\'s having backbone.&rdquo;  Robert Kiyosaki  Other interests  Now that my judo and boxing days are over, I still like to keep fit by running and attending the gym. Aside from this, I love fine wine and France, as well as spending time with my crazy boxer dogs and my very patient girlfriend. I also enjoy reading books on business strategy and pursuing further studies to broaden my knowledge in this weird and wonderful world.

Humans are irrational and inconsistent.&nbsp;Whether it be your employees, contractors, suppliers, customers, or prospects, your company security culture needs to include all of your stakeholders. After all, a chain is only as strong as its weakest link.  With this in mind, here are 10 points to consider when thinking about your company&rsquo;s cyber-security hygiene:  1. IT security is often seen as a negative function, which can make employees&rsquo; lives more difficult and limit the amount of control they have over their own equipment. This mentality often leads to employees actively looking for ways to bypass security measures that are in pace.  2. Employees want to try a new productivity or work-related tool, so they should be able to get helpful advice and guidance from IT. Colleagues in IT should want employees to ask them questions and recommendations as that\'s how you can engage and educate them.  3.&nbsp;Staff should understand that protecting their home IT is just as important as protecting work IT in order to mitigate the risks of contagion via BYOD practices.&nbsp;&nbsp;  4. Informative posters should be displayed where appropriate and more formal training should be provided in order to teach staff how to protect themselves.  5. Social media platforms are used for both personal and business means; the line is blurred. This cross-over between personal and business can be unhealthy, and a divide needs to be created and maintained.  6. Acceptable use policies are a must to protect both the user and the company. Security knowledge should not be considered common sense, each department has their own items to learn. Creating an educational environment is just as important as incorporating a culture.  7. If you tell employees, they will forget. Show them how something works and they will remember. Involve them and they will understand. Take apart a phishing email and show them why it\'s dangerous. Just telling them that phishing emails are bad does not equip them sufficiently to identify or understand the risks involved. Running phishing assessments with instant feedback is a way of involving employees and teaching them.&nbsp;Cisco does this very well.  8. To capture someone\'s attention, you need to do it in six seconds&nbsp;according to a new&nbsp;study by comScore&nbsp;(2017). By using the AIDA (Attention, Interest, Desire, Action) psychology model can influence a positive change in employees. A change in attitude will change their behaviour which will change their actions.  9. Don&rsquo;t presume to dictate to employees. They know their job better than you. Open discussions and learning groups will engage them and better yet, may reveal anomalous events or behaviour previously unknown to the organisation.  10. A passphrase is a great password. A mixture of uppercase, lowercase, numbers and special characters will provide a strong but forgettable password. A memorable password is a passphrase that is engaging and connects on an emotional level. &ldquo;Unhappy rabbit black jack&rdquo; is a strong passphrase that is 25 characters long. The complexity of this passphrase can be increased by replacing vowels with numbers and by adding special characters. &ldquo;Unhappy rabbit black jack&rdquo; turns into &ldquo;Unh4ppy r4bb1t bl4ck j4ck!&rdquo;, a passphrase that is both highly remembered and complex enough to meet typical password requirements.  In summary, the human firewall needs to be understood in order for security measure to be effective. Utilisation of your most important asset in the fight against cyber-attacks (people, not technology, just in case you still haven&rsquo;t gotten our point) is the best defence for your company; you just need to figure out how to turn it on.&nbsp;                                                                                                                                                      Posted By                            Steven Forrest                                                         Share article                       Share article                                                                                                                     Are you ready to transform your business?

I&rsquo;ve architected complex designs, technology road-maps and risk mitigation strategies, for some of the largest blue-chip companies in the world. More recently, I&rsquo;ve been responsible for managing and executing a company acquisition, as well as developing the associated earn out mechanics.  Background  Prior to life in the commercial world, I spent my time working for the armed forces in some of the most hostile places on earth. Whilst serving, I worked extensively with computer networks, as well as designing blast walls to absorb rocket energy. I also worked as a specialised military diver and spent half my life underwater searching for dead bodies and other unpleasant things. To let off steam I spent much of my time on the judo mat and in the boxing ring, and in fact, participating in any physical and mental challenge that presented itself.  Favourite quote  This quote really resonates with me, as I feel it represents one of our most powerful core values, integrity.    &ldquo;A lot of people are afraid to tell the truth, to say no. That\'s where toughness comes into play. Toughness is not being a bully. It\'s having backbone.&rdquo;  Robert Kiyosaki  Other interests  Now that my judo and boxing days are over, I still like to keep fit by running and attending the gym. Aside from this, I love fine wine and France, as well as spending time with my crazy boxer dogs and my very patient girlfriend. I also enjoy reading books on business strategy and pursuing further studies to broaden my knowledge in this weird and wonderful world.

This time, I&rsquo;m undertaking another mini experiment; I&rsquo;m replacing my Mac with an iPad, and making a concerted effort to switch off during allotted downtime, with a view to making much more time for R&amp;R on my working holiday.  Travel light  There&rsquo;s something rather liberating about travelling light; so this time around, I&rsquo;ll only be taking lighting chargers for my iPad, with no heavy MacBook, or cumbersome chargers to speak of. The question is, whether the trade off for freedom and portability will prove too restrictive, and/ or whether workarounds will become a limiting factor, and actually hinder productivity.  Single endpoint?  Nowadays there is much talk about communicating with a single endpoint, whether that be a device or a person; many believe that in just a few years from now, the idea of personal smart devices will become redundant. The main reason for this will be the rapid growth in digitisation, which is outlined eloquently in the opening section of our new &lsquo;Introducing Forfusion&rsquo; video.  Portable office  I plan to use cloud based tools during this working holiday; primarily Cisco and Microsoft instant Messaging (IM) apps for quick, ad hoc updates. For more formal communications, I intend on using Cisco Jabber, Spark and WebEx, as well as Microsoft Office/ Dynamics 365 (CRM, Excel, PowerPoint, SharePoint and Word).  For microblogging and social media, I will utilise the usual suspects including LinkedIn and Twitter; however I will also be using some of the automation and social influence / intelligence tools used by our marketing team, such as Hootsuite and Lissted; all tools will be 100% cloud based.&nbsp;  Strict is smart  Challenges I experienced last time weren\'t related to communications infrastructure, or being able to collaborate effectively with my team based back in the UK. It was actually being disciplined with myself in knowing when to switch off and when to make myself completely unavailable.  This is something many struggle with, whether on holiday or not. Some in the scientific &nbsp;community have believed for some time that smartphone usage is addictive and stimulates the same activity in the brain as hard drugs!  So, this time, I will be making a concerted effort to avoid getting sucked in, by disabling my email when out of office, and being strict in terms of hours I spend on my iPad &ndash; wish me luck!  Next steps  During my working holiday I plan to post some short blogs, maybe even some vlogs, some of which will be work related, others will not.  I&rsquo;m hoping that this experiment will provoke discussion and debate around how technology (or lack of it in some scenarios!) is changing the nature of work. So I invite your comments and questions!

I&rsquo;ve architected complex designs, technology road-maps and risk mitigation strategies, for some of the largest blue-chip companies in the world. More recently, I&rsquo;ve been responsible for managing and executing a company acquisition, as well as developing the associated earn out mechanics.  Background  Prior to life in the commercial world, I spent my time working for the armed forces in some of the most hostile places on earth. Whilst serving, I worked extensively with computer networks, as well as designing blast walls to absorb rocket energy. I also worked as a specialised military diver and spent half my life underwater searching for dead bodies and other unpleasant things. To let off steam I spent much of my time on the judo mat and in the boxing ring, and in fact, participating in any physical and mental challenge that presented itself.  Favourite quote  This quote really resonates with me, as I feel it represents one of our most powerful core values, integrity.    &ldquo;A lot of people are afraid to tell the truth, to say no. That\'s where toughness comes into play. Toughness is not being a bully. It\'s having backbone.&rdquo;  Robert Kiyosaki  Other interests  Now that my judo and boxing days are over, I still like to keep fit by running and attending the gym. Aside from this, I love fine wine and France, as well as spending time with my crazy boxer dogs and my very patient girlfriend. I also enjoy reading books on business strategy and pursuing further studies to broaden my knowledge in this weird and wonderful world.

It&rsquo;s simple really. Forfusion was founded on the belief that there was a better way to run a technology consultancy. Both by empowering colleagues to be the best they can be, and by ensuring customers get the maximum return from their technology investments. This meant from day one, return on investment was at the top of our agenda.  The founders had all worked for, or with the big technology systems integrators. So we set out, first and foremost, to build a business on what not to do, rather than on what to do!  And so, this founding belief has enabled Forfusion to displace much larger and longer established incumbent suppliers, but more importantly why customers regard Forfusion in such high esteem &ndash; by being a trusted, strategic advisor with long-term relationships. Not the high volume, transactional-based &lsquo;throw enough s*** and it&rsquo;ll stick&rsquo; approach.  We didn&rsquo;t have it all our own way in the early days however. We had to start off by white labelling services, based in an office in Battersea no bigger than a Broom Cupboard to generate capital required to change our business model and deliver directly into end clients (now dubbed the &lsquo;Broom Cupboard to Boardroom&rsquo; story).  None of the directors had any money to speak of, so with no capital injection, and no interest from venture capital. We had little in the way of options to get started.  Surely enough, over the years, Forfusion grew its customer base on its founding belief and &lsquo;how not to do it&rsquo; philosophy. Before we knew it, Forfusion&rsquo;s reputation for customer-centric ethos and of course outstanding capabilities spread far and wide, domestically and internationally. This meant we could stop white labelling altogether.  Thus, we no longer had to let others take all the reputational credit and lion&rsquo;s share of the revenue for the cutting-edge work we were doing &ndash; and not a moment too soon! &nbsp;  What was the vision?  The initial vision was plain and simple. First and foremost, we knew we had to avoid making the mistakes that existing IT companies were making daily. The directors agreed on this one very important point, which even 10 years on, still rings true. I believe this has, and continues to prevent us from becoming complacent and taking things for granted &ndash; I like to think we will never lose sight of our initial vision.  How has that developed / come to life?  We progressed slowly and deliberately; arguably more slowly than we could have done. It was probably this approach that allowed us to lay foundations and make the right decisions early on in our journey. We were always planning and making provision for change, which looking back may well have hindered our progress slightly; however, it also provided us with a stable platform from which to grow. The fact we prepared well, meant we would later ride the waves caused by the recession; ironically, the awful events in 2008 and fallout thereafter probably presented the biggest opportunity. Customers began looking for agile and flexible partners, and so this gave us our chance.  What have been the proudest achievements?  That&rsquo;s a great question&hellip; We&rsquo;ve been growing so quickly recently it&rsquo;s been easy to forget to stop, take a look around and reflect. In all honesty, I do think we&rsquo;ve achieved an awful lot, but I&rsquo;m also aware that we have so much more to do and to accomplish.  There have been a few proud moments, but I think the proudest moment of all, has got to be bringing our HQ back to the North East.  Four of our directors were born and bred in the North East; we all share a strong sense of pride in knowing we&rsquo;re contributing to the region&rsquo;s economy &ndash; we make it a top priority to bring youngsters up through the ranks via formal apprenticeships, as well as fast-track programs, which we&rsquo;ve developed from scratch in-house.  What challenges do you face / have overcome?  We&rsquo;ve had to overcome many challenges, mostly relating to cash flow and HR; probably one of biggest challenges was recovering from an incident that happened in the early days, when we needed cash the most. We were owed &pound;15k by a serial rip off merchant (we didn&rsquo;t realise at the time) &ndash; the individual in question took monies owed from a customer for services we had delivered, and then decided to file for bankruptcy, hence we didn&rsquo;t receive payment. This single event very nearly led to the demise of Forfusion, it was our first very harsh and painful lesson.  What have you enjoyed the most?  That&rsquo;s an easy one &ndash; tackling the unknown and testing myself as well as others. Tackling the unknown has been terrifying and exhilarating in equal measure, which to an extent is what has kept me on my toes, and as strange as it may sound, it&rsquo;s helped me find balance. Working at an even pace without change doesn&rsquo;t really suit me; I&rsquo;m a risk taker at heart, so constant positive change works very well for me.&nbsp;  Over the past couple of years, I&rsquo;ve found a real passion for all things business development and marketing, and have a vested interest in matters relating to mergers and acquisition (especially given some very exciting news we are due to announce soon!), but these topics are all relatively new to me and I have lots to learn.  What have been the inflection points in technology over the last 10 years?  From my perspective, these have been the rapid development of unified communications, security and cloud (inc. virtualisation) services and products.  New technology and the shift in working behaviours have both worked in conjunction, which has fuelled change across all market sectors. Remote working policies introduced challenges in respect of education, culture and trust; security became more prominent as a direct result of world-wide events such as data breaches; whereas cloud computing encouraged annuity based, arguably more economical service models, and is a topic that still very much divides opinion.  How have they impacted the business?  The inflection points have had a very positive impact on our business; it has however been necessary for us to adapt and change direction very quickly to accommodate change, which is a challenge we thrive on, and in fact something I feel we are well set up to tackle.  We tend to encourage change, whether it be technology, economics, or politics, because we know we can move more quickly than most. We&rsquo;ve proved that agility and flexibility found in smaller organisations often trump other attributes so often promoted by larger businesses.&nbsp;  How will these impact the future?  Like they say, change is the only certainty in any business. The key is to be able to react quickly, and most importantly, to never ever become complacent. Fortunately, we have a very forward thinking and dynamic team. One thing I&rsquo;m sure will happen, is that competition will become even more fierce, and margins will likely be squeezed further, but it&rsquo;s then up to us to continually push the boundaries and innovate.  How is Forfusion preparing?  We focus on skilling up our in-house teams and apprentices across multiple technologies and vendors to ensure we&rsquo;re prepared for the future. We&rsquo;re always tweaking and refining the services we promote and sell to ensure we deliver in-line with market demand and changing trends. We&rsquo;ve recently taken on two more directors, both of which will be helping us drive our managed services portfolio/ catalogue. One of the guys brings experience in the world or process and procedure, including deep understanding of ITIL and ISO.&nbsp; The other brings strong business development skills with extensive experience in relation to cost modelling and packaging of managed services.  Advice to other tech entrepreneurs?  Don&rsquo;t be afraid of the unknown; instead, embrace it and meet challenges head on with every fibre of your being. In difficult and particularly stressful times, I will often look at myself in the mirror and say, &lsquo;if you don&rsquo;t give it a go, you&rsquo;ll never know&rsquo;. It&rsquo;s amazing how much can be achieved through shear guts and determination, which if bolstered by a bullet proof and trustworthy team that possesses diverse skills and attributes, can be very powerful. Diversity counts for an awful lot in my opinion; it encourages tolerance, team work, moral responsibility, and just as importantly, it keeps things fresh and interesting.  Advice to yourself 10 years ago?  Be open to advice and constructive criticism, but don&rsquo;t listen to the doubters. Always trust your gut instinct, never be afraid of failing, and always push the boundaries. Oh, and work even harder to be more tolerant and patient! I&rsquo;ve had to work very hard over the past 10 years to become a more tolerant and more patient person, which I really did struggle with at the outset, and guess to an extent I still do. These are two of the many things I&rsquo;ve learned from my business partners, which I most definitely could not have picked up from reading a book; this is evidence that building a diverse team and taking time to learn from one another is imperative.&nbsp;  How will the business develop over the next 10 years?  I hope we will continue to learn, adapt, grow, and use our knowledge and skills to give back to the North East of England. We will do everything we can to move with the times. We will continue to invest, for the good of our business, and for all employees that dedicate their time and effort to help our company meet its wider strategic objectives. We&rsquo;re in business to build something special, a business that has longevity, not a lifestyle business that focusses on quick wins. We will always strive to deliver in-line with our slogan of &lsquo;De-risking Digital Transformation&rsquo; for all our customers and partners alike.  Thanks Steve!

Forfusion is typically invited in by customers who feel:    Burdened by risks from ageing technology infrastructure  Worried about ineffective customer experience  Isolated by poor collaboration between teams and customers  Alarmed by the spiralling total cost of ownership of IT systems    Serving as a trusted advisor and partner, rather than just another IT supplier, Forfusion alleviates these pain points.  For over 10 years, Forfusion&rsquo;s&nbsp;flexible and agile approach&nbsp;has proven successful for customers far and wide in finding the most&nbsp;effective solution&nbsp;that de-risks the planning, deployment, adoption and support of new technologies.  You have grown rapidly in a crowded field. What has been key to that growth? And how do you differentiate yourselves?  It&rsquo;s clear that technology is playing an increasingly bigger role in practically every aspect of business. This presenting significant opportunities for efficiencies and cost savings, but also poses huge risks. The risk of choosing the wrong vendor&rsquo;s technology for the desired business outcomes.  The risk of being unable to integrate with legacy systems. The risk of your IT systems not being to scale with your organisation. The reputational risk (personal, departmental and organisational) if it things goes wrong. And the most serious of all, the risks of cyber-attacks. These risks are a real challenge, and present a myriad of pain points for not just the IT department, but C-Suite.  What&rsquo;s been important to our growth is our approach. We only work with customers who have genuine pain points that we can help overcome. We don&rsquo;t sell technologies and products per se, that&rsquo;s of secondary importance. Our approach starts with asking similar questions to the following, which determines whether we can do business:    What is the business outcome you&rsquo;re looking to achieve / pain points you&rsquo;re trying to overcome?  How long has this been an issue?  Have you tried to do anything about it?  How much has the issue cost the business?&nbsp;  What would happen if you did nothing?    This approach is refreshing for the both ourselves and our customers. And it&rsquo;s one I think I think sets us apart from others trying to compete in this region, underlying our consistent double-digit growth rate over the last four years. Our customers know that we are not just trying to sell them something. They understand that we are trying to get to the heart of their issues to determine whether we can help or not.  Increasingly, we are invited in by organisations whose biggest pain by far is cyber-security (or lack of it).  What is driving this market?  We&rsquo;re entering what commentators are calling The Fourth Industrial Revolution &ndash; digital transformation on a massive scale. More and more devices or &lsquo;things&rsquo; are becoming connected. To each other and to the internet.  In 2015, there were around 7.3 billion people and around 6 billion connected devices. Today, there are twice as many connected devices in the world today then there are people! About 15 billion. That&rsquo;s an increase of about 150% in the last two years. There are more connected devices in India than there are toilets&hellip;  By 2030, there could be as many 500 billion (devices that is, not toilets!). This exponential change in ratio is going to have profound implications for not just the business world, but humanity as a whole.  Moreover, more than 90% of the world&rsquo;s data was created in the last 2 years! There has been more created since you started reading this article than there was for centuries of human existence&hellip; What an incredibly exciting and terrifying time to alive!  What are the key trends and issues in data security right now?  The problem is, knowledge of cyber-security best practice has not kept pace with the growth in scale, frequency and severity of cyber-attacks. As the world becomes more connected, there more opportunities available to those that seek to sabotage, pillage and plunder from hard working businesses.  This is confounded by the fact that more organisations embrace flexible and remote working. Whilst it is almost undeniable that remote working has a vast array of benefits to both employees and employers, it can be extremely difficult to protect remote workers from cyber-attacks. Because it&rsquo;s too easy for them to bypass the corporate network &ndash; willingly or unwillingly (without digressing onto Hillary Clinton&rsquo;s email shenanigans!).  There&rsquo;s no one magic solution to cyber-security. If anyone suggests otherwise, run the other way. Organisations need to think about Defence in Depth &ndash; multiple layers of security to mitigate the vast array of risks and varied attacks that can be launched on modern IT infrastructure.  The first line of defence, particularly for mobile workers is at the DNS layer. And that&rsquo;s why Cisco&rsquo;s recent acquisition of OpenDNS represented a significant step in protection of mobile workers &ndash;defence via a Secure Internet Gateway. However this alone is not enough. It can&rsquo;t protect your organisations from email application activity. For this, you need a next generation firewall to combat the increasing sophistication of cyber-attacks.  There are obviously many types of cyber-attack, but one particular attack has shot up recently and that is Ransomware - the denial of digital services held for a financial ransom.  The genius of Ransomware is that it monetises assets that, in most cases, are only valuable to that of the victim. The most painful aspect of these attacks, is that not all hackers play fair. Often, even after the victim has paid the ransom, their data and assets are never retrieved. Some sources report that Ransomware attacks increased threefold in 2016, with one in five businesses affected worldwide.  The implementation of GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) in May 2018 is another big issue that will affect every business. This regulation will increase privacy for individuals and give regulatory authorities powers to take action against businesses that fail to adequate steps to protect their data. In fact, companies can be fined 4% of annual global revenue or &euro;20 million &ndash; whichever is greater!  Regardless of Brexit, the regulation applies to non-EU companies that process personal data of individuals residing in the EU. What&rsquo;s worrying is that many businesses are unaware of this regulation, and could be sleepwalking into non-compliance.  Are you working internationally?  Forfusion is proud to have been working with international customers since 2009. We were drafted into assist in the planning and deployment of multimillion pound unified communications project with the Gold Coast Hospital in Australia. Since then, we have been invited in by customers from Central Europe, Scandinavia, South East Asia and even Africa.  Our approach is renowned, and up until fairly recently, was mostly spread far and wide through word of mouth. Three of our biggest customers are multinational companies, enlisting Forfusion&rsquo;s help to de-risk their IT operations across site across the globe.
