What Makes Us Different

Intersys is the Security First Provider, with a dedicated cyber security division overseeing our team’s work. With the current scale of the cyber threat, this level of security-hardened IT helps our clients stay safe in an increasingly dangerous world.

We have also developed a service-over-sales culture that puts solving problems firmly ahead of ‘selling kit’. This approach is championed by our leadership team who, unlike many similar businesses, are not sales people but technically accomplished cyber risk and IT professionals. This approach has led to an exceptionally high client retention rate.

Our Story

Founder and CEO Matthew Geyman kickstarted Intersys, quite literally, in 1996, when he began providing fast-response IT services from his Triumph Daytona motorbike. Formerly an IT manager in the City, he grew frustrated by technical stagnation among in-house teams and relentless sales pitches from outsourced providers. Zipping across London, he developed an agile, service-focused business. Intersys now has 140-plus clients in the UK, India, New Zealand, West Africa and many more territories.

About Intersys

- Intersys is one of the UK’s leading cyber risk and IT providers, serving over 140 clients across the globe.

- Our founder, Matthew Geyman, began the business after a career as an IT manager in the City.

- He became frustrated by the lack of innovation from in-house IT teams and the sales culture among external IT providers.

- Spotting a gap in the market, in 1996, he founded a truly customer-focused IT business with a service-over-sales culture and a strong focus on innovation.

- In the early years, he provided an agile, one-man service to clients across London from a Triumph Daytona motorbike!

What Sets Us Apart

- We are an ISO 27001-certified Security First provider. Intersys has a dedicated cyber security division informing all of our projects to provide robust and secure IT.

- Our leadership team are IT people. This is rarer than you might think – many IT organisations are led by sales teams.

- This technical leadership from the top informs our service over-sales-focus – we’re basically about solving problems not selling our clients kit.

- Our approach has led to an unusually high retention rate (94% over an industry average of 77%) and an average client relationship of 8.6 years.

- Intersys serves all sectors, including highly regulated industries such as life sciences and finance.
