Converged Solutions Group today announced its launch into the UK market, bringing together four trusted Scottish technology organisations under one unified brand, with technology industry pioneer, Graeme Gordon, appointed as the group’s CEO.

The new group brings together Converged Communication Solutions, IFB, Converged Rural Broadband, and Scot-Tech Fire & Security.

With the UK Online Safety Act 2025 now in force, the digital world, which let’s face it is the world we live and work in, faces a new era of accountability. The efforts made to protect vulnerable users from harmful content, one question remains:

We don't often connect the price of our daily essentials with the world of cybercrime - but recently we have all had to a little more. What might seem a distant concept is hitting home as a series of cyber attacks on critical parts of retail supply chain is having a very real consequence for your weekly shop. So, how can a cyber attack affect the price of a litre of milk, and why you might find yourself heading to a different supermarket?

IFB is pleased to announce that we have been acquired by Converged Communication Solutions, a leading Scottish provider of secure, scalable, and resilient digital solutions for businesses. This strategic move brings together two well-known Scottish technology firms, reinforcing Converged’s position as a leading provider of secure, scalable, and resilient digital solutions for businesses across Scotland.
