Business in Brighton

Brighton's business base is skewed unusually far towards small firms — creative, digital and professional practices of five to fifty people, a great many of them in converted upper floors around the Lanes and North Laine — sitting alongside a substantial conference and visitor economy and two universities. Very few of these businesses employ anyone in IT. They are demanding users of bandwidth and light users of everything else, which means the two things that actually matter are a connection that holds up on a full day of calls and someone to ring who is not a chatbot.

Sectors we work with around Brighton

Brighton — common questions

We are a small Brighton agency with nobody in IT. Who actually manages this?

We do, which is the point of buying it this way rather than assembling it yourself. Nick Thomas is the named contact for the account, the SCG desk handles faults around the clock, and changes — a new starter, a number, a diversion — are a request rather than a project. For a fifteen-person agency that is usually the difference between having a phone system and having a permanent side task.

Our office is above a shop in the Lanes. What connection can we realistically get?

It depends on the building rather than the street, and in the older parts of central Brighton those two answers diverge a lot. Full fibre availability is good in the city generally, but a converted upper floor can be limited by how the building is wired and by what a landlord will allow. We check the specific address, and where a fibre install is not viable a leased line or a fixed wireless link usually is.

The 2027 switch-off affects Brighton too. Openreach plans to retire its traditional phone network by 31 January 2027. Check your phone lines, alarms and payment terminals, and plan the move with your provider.
