Company further expands its digital services capability.

Q Associates, a leading independent UK datacentre infrastructure and data management services provider, has acquired Apex Group, the Bracknell-based cloud and network services specialist. The combined company will employ around 80 staff, with turnover in the region of £35M.


Apex Group strongly complements Q Associates’ datacentre infrastructure and data management solutions. In addition to specialist networking capabilities encompassing LAN, WAN and WiFi technologies, Apex Group brings a range of cloud migration and integration services with significant expertise around Microsoft Azure Cloud, Modern Workplace, Business Applications and Data Analytics. 

Together, these will offer significant value to Q Associates clients across all sectors as they increasingly rely on Microsoft technologies to deliver critical workloads and collaboration.

“The acquisition of Apex Group represents a significant development for Q Associates and our clients who are striving to embrace the benefits of digital transformation and cloud productivity,” said David Cue, Founder and Managing Director of Q Associates. “This is a key step as we continue to expand our digital services portfolio, supporting customers with specialist services across modern workplace, datacentre and cloud environments – underpinned by independent advice and technical excellence.”

Gerry Allan, Managing Director of Apex Group joins the Q Associates board. “We are delighted to be joining forces with Q Associates in a move that will hugely benefit both parties,” he said. “Our combined technical capability will enable us to support customers with a full range of expert services at a time when the IT landscape is rapidly evolving.”
