Business in Portsmouth
Portsmouth is a naval city on an island, and the concentration that produces is unusual: the dockyard and the defence supply chain, marine engineering, a substantial aerospace and space technology presence, and a university feeding all of it. The waterfront carries retail, tourism and a ferry port working international routes. Being physically constrained by the island means premises are tight, older and frequently shared, and a great many businesses operate within a couple of miles of each other and of the sea.

Portsmouth — common questions
We hold defence contracts in Portsmouth. Does that change what you can supply?
It raises the bar and the customer usually sets it rather than us. Segmented networks, monitored firewalls, controlled and reviewed access and documented configuration are the baseline. Where a contract carries a formal security standard we build to that standard rather than to our own view of good practice, and we want sight of the requirement before quoting.
Our Portsmouth premises is shared and the landlord controls the connection. Options?
More than people assume. A dedicated circuit can usually be installed into a shared building even where the landlord provides a house connection, and it is worth doing where you cannot afford to share bandwidth with whoever is upstairs. Where the landlord genuinely will not permit it, a 4G or 5G circuit gives you something independent without touching the building.
