Headcount: 99 (+71%)
Specialism: Microsoft
HQ: Tunbridge Wells, Kent
Infinity’s pure-play Microsoft focus has been the key to its recent growth, CEO Rob Young claims (see below).
The Kent-based outfit is significantly larger than this profile’s header suggests after it moved to acquire 200 Business Central customers from Pax8 in May 2024 (adding to its existing base of 340 clients). It also acquired housing sector specialist RedkiteCRM in October 2023.
Infinity makes the Fast-Growth 50 on the back of average monthly headcount swelling from 58 to 99 between its fiscal 2020 and 2023. It now claims to employ 178 staff.
Q&A with Infinity Group CEO Rob Young
You’re one of the UK’s fastest growing IT solutions providers by headcount. What would you attribute that to?
Firstly, our culture. We invest in our people, ensuring they get the support they need to exceed and progress their career as well as giving them autonomy and purpose. Secondly, our focus as a pure-play Microsoft partner is helping businesses understand their challenges and then map the technology. We’ve been able to grow our base by supporting leadership teams through digital transformation. And as our base grows, so does our workforce
What’s your biggest growth bet for 2025?
It’s an obvious answer, but AI. We’ve already seen it evolve to include agentic AI this year, so more and more businesses are going to find value from it. However, there is also a lot of work as organisations still need to get their data, applications and security in order to take advantage.
What’s been your biggest tech let down of the last 12 months?
With AI we’ve seen a lot of hype, but now we need to see some tangible results. It’s easy for organisations to get carried away, often trying to get the technology to fit the solution. Taking a step back and finding out the business needs will lead to better results – this is something many organisations miss, but we believe the tide is starting to turn.
Name one thing your company has planned for the next 12 months
We will continue to scale our offering across SMB and mid-market, with the generation of verticalised IP and products to better solve problems for our clients in those verticals. We’ll also be working closely with Microsoft, especially their innovations around AI and data, to drive solutions built for the modern climate.
Which industry peer do you respect the most?
As a Microsoft Partner, we of course are going to say Microsoft! They are unmatched when it comes to business technology and we’ve seen recent developments that are genuinely driving the future landscape. From AI to quantum computing, they’re at the forefront – and their empowerment of their people is crucial to this. This is something we try to embody at Infinity Group.
