Dorset Chamber has expanded its platinum business partners by welcoming IT and telecoms provider ITCS.

Bridgend-based ITCS recently acquired Dorchester’s Poundbury Systems, enhancing its national services. Dorset Chamber’s business partner programme supports members contributing significantly to the organisation and local business community.

Ian Girling, Dorset Chamber chief executive, said: “It is a tremendous coup to welcome ITCS as a platinum business partner.

“They are a leading national IT and telecoms provider with a local office which has built an excellent reputation over many years.

“We look forward to developing a strong and valuable relationship with ITCS to help further raise its profile while supporting the business community and growth of the local economy.”

ITCS joins as the chamber celebrates its 75th anniversary and looks forward to its business festival in the autumn.

ITCS, with offices in London, the South West and the Midlands, provides comprehensive IT solutions, including business IT support, cyber security, software and design, telecoms and broadband, structured networking, and marketing and SEO.

Brian Stokes, managing director of ITCS, said: “ITCS and Dorset Chamber are likeminded organisations with a commitment to excellence, innovation and the highest quality service.

“This is an exciting time to become a platinum business partner with the addition of Poundbury Systems to the ITCS group. We are all looking forward enthusiastically to embracing our role and working more closely with the chamber team and fellow members.

“This strategic expansion enables us to offer a comprehensive range of IT and telecoms services, including business IT support, cyber security, superfast broadband, software development and web design, with digital marketing, SEO and PPC.

“These services are tailored to meet the specific needs of businesses in the region, where we look forward to building lasting relationships and contributing to the economic development of Dorset.”

Dorset Chamber, the county’s leading business support organisation, represents nearly 700 members and 37,000 employees. It is the only chamber in the county accredited to the British Chambers of Commerce, with a vision of ‘enabling better lives through business’. The chamber offers various membership tiers, from entry level to associate.
