Channel-only event starts four-city tour aimed at fostering collaboration and innovation among top Managed Service Providers across the UK and Ireland.
IT Europa is set to kick off its highly anticipated MSP Regional Growth Forum at The Lowry Hotel in Manchester this October. This exclusive event marks the beginning of a four-city tour, bringing together senior leaders from high-growth Managed Service Providers (MSPs) across the UK and Ireland. Following the Manchester event, the Forum will continue its journey with stops in Birmingham, Bristol, and Dublin throughout 2025, fostering collaboration and growth in the MSP sector.
The Manchester forum will begin with a keynote address from Kevin Keegan, OBE, the legendary former England football captain and two-time Ballon d'Or winner. Keegan, who has successfully transitioned from the pitch to leadership roles, will share his experiences and lessons on leadership, communication, and overcoming both personal and professional challenges. His insights are expected to resonate with MSP leaders looking to steer their organizations through periods of growth and transformation.
One of the central features of the event is the Executive Strategy Panel, where key leaders from technology suppliers and MSPs will come together to discuss the main challenges inhibiting business growth. With a focus on marketing, sales, and go-to-market strategies, the panel will offer practical examples of how MSPs can drive innovation and overcome obstacles. The session will invite active participation from delegates, ensuring that the conversation addresses real-world issues and solutions.
Networking will also play a significant role in the day’s agenda. Attendees will have multiple opportunities to connect with peers and sponsors, starting with a networking lunch. Set in a relaxed environment, this portion of the event will encourage delegates to build relationships, share ideas, and explore potential partnerships.
The MSP Regional Growth Forum is designed to attract MSPs with a turnover of £1 million or more, focusing on those with consistent growth and financial stability. IT Europa’s extensive database, which tracks over 8,000 ICT suppliers in the UK, ensures that the most relevant and high-performing MSPs are invited to attend. Delegates are invited based on various criteria, including revenue, profitability, and market presence, with particular attention to those active in high-growth verticals and technologies.
Stephen Osborne, Sales Director at IT Europa, expressed his enthusiasm for the event, stating, "These forums are designed to give MSPs the insights and connections they need to continue their growth journeys. We’re excited to host such a unique event where leaders can discuss both challenges and opportunities in a collaborative environment."
The Regional Growth Forum promises to provide MSP leaders with the tools and relationships necessary to drive continued success in an increasingly competitive market.
