Birmingham, United Kingdom, September 29, 2026 -- Compex IT is marking more than 25 years in business, having been founded in 2000 by Mark Dodds and Gary Alsop. Headquartered in Birmingham, the company continues to operate as an outsourced IT department for small and medium-sized enterprises across the West Midlands, delivering day-to-day support alongside longer-term technology planning.

Further detail on this approach is available on the IT Support Birmingham page.

"Reaching more than 25 years is a testament to the trust these Birmingham businesses have placed in us, and we're grateful for it."
