Double Celebration for PSP IT as Company Secures Two Shortlist Places at the 2027 East Midlands Growth Awards!

PSP IT Design & Development is celebrating after being officially shortlisted in two prestigious categories at the 2027 East Midlands Growth Awards, recognising both the company's commercial achievements and the emerging leadership talent helping to shape its future.

The Spalding-based IT solutions and digital transformation specialist has been named a finalist for Finance and Commercial Team of the Year, while Scott Slocombe has been individually shortlisted for Emerging Growth Leader.

Organised by TheBusinessDesk.com, the East Midlands Growth Awards celebrate ambitious businesses, exceptional teams and inspiring individuals who are making a genuine difference to business growth and success across the region.

Celebrating Commercial Growth and Team Success

For PSP IT, being shortlisted for Finance and Commercial Team of the Year is particularly significant, reflecting the company's continued focus on strengthening its commercial approach, building long-term customer partnerships and creating sustainable opportunities for growth.

Since its establishment in 2008, PSP has built a strong reputation for delivering innovative IT solutions, bespoke software development, digital transformation and outsourced IT services to organisations across a wide range of sectors.

With a renewed focus on commercial performance, strategic development and customer relationships, the business continues to build on its foundations while investing in the people, systems and processes that support its future ambitions.

Recognising the Next Generation of Leadership

Adding to the celebrations is the individual recognition of Scott Slocombe, who has been shortlisted for Emerging Growth Leader.

Scott has played an instrumental role in supporting PSP's strategic direction, helping to drive a more commercially focused approach while taking on increasing leadership responsibilities.

His contribution to business development, operational improvement and the company's long-term technology strategy has helped position PSP for its next chapter of growth.

The nomination recognises not only Scott's achievements to date but also his potential as one of the region's emerging business leaders.

A Proud Moment for PSP

Joe Verde, CEO of PSP IT, commented:

"To be shortlisted for not one, but two awards is a fantastic achievement and something we are incredibly proud of.

Over the years, we have worked hard to build a business that combines technical expertise with genuine customer care, strong relationships and a determination to keep moving forward.

Our commercial journey continues to evolve, and this recognition reflects the dedication, commitment and collective effort of everyone involved.

I'm particularly delighted to see Scott recognised for his leadership and contribution to our future direction. Developing talented people and giving them the opportunity to make a real difference is fundamental to our continued success.

Whatever the outcome, being recognised alongside so many ambitious and successful businesses across the East Midlands is a tremendous honour."

Looking Ahead to March 2027

The winners will be announced at the East Midlands Growth Awards ceremony on Thursday 4 March 2027, at the Crowne Plaza in Nottingham, bringing together businesses and leaders from across the region to celebrate achievement, ambition and growth.

For PSP, these two shortlist places represent another exciting milestone in the company's journey and further recognition of its commitment to delivering value for customers, developing its people and building a strong, sustainable future.

From everyone at PSP, congratulations to Scott and the wider team. Here's to continued growth, exciting opportunities and hopefully a double celebration in March!
