As part of the partnership, RDS have taken up the option to display their company branding across Derby’s digital assets at the iPro Stadium, as well as throughout the corporate hospitality areas.

RDS Global was established in 1997, originating from the IT department of a Derby-based automotive dealer group. Focussing first on providing tailored network services; IT support, cloud, hardware and consultancy solutions were soon added to their solution portfolio in response to customer requirements. The business continued to develop, building on our customer service focus, ‘issue ownership’ principles and extending their technical capabilities to meet growing demand.

In 2015, RDS Global merged with telecom and security product specialists Future Technologies – a strategic move for both companies and which extended their range of solutions and services. The addition of complementary products; digital access control and CCTV, telecom and convergence technologies, has enabled them to be the ‘go-to’ company for a wider range of customers’ requirements.

They now support 4,000 users in 200 locations across the UK, serving customers in sectors which include automotive retail, builders’ merchants, care homes, hotel and hospitality and professional services.
