Assure Technical Reappointed as Professional Advisors for the Worcestershire Growth Hub

We’re thrilled to be trusted once again to act as Professional Advisors on behalf of the Worcestershire Growth Hub. Under the scheme, we provide fully funded, specialist support to Worcestershire-based businesses, helping them to adopt technology and AI to improve performance, productivity, and resilience.

Since our initial appointment as Professional Business Advisors in 2023, we have provided funded services to 47 local SMEs, tailored to each business’s needs. These include:

• Digital Strategy Development – Reviewing current technology use and identifying improvement opportunities.
• Specialist Tools & Processes – Such as Qualys vulnerability scanning of rapid risk detection and remediation.
• AI Integration Advice – Highlighting practical use cases and guiding best practice implementation.
• IT Security & Compliance – Backed by our Cyber Essentials Certification Body status and ISO 27001 expertise.

This reappointment recognises the value our hands-on, jargon-free approach has brought to local businesses across the county.

“Being reappointed is an honour,” says Pete Rucinski, Managing Director at Assure Technical. “It’s proof that the work we’ve done has made a real difference – from helping organisations streamline their operations to giving them the confidence to explore AI and digital tools that deliver genuine results. Our goal is to help businesses navigate their digital journey with clarity, confidence, and focus on tangible outcomes.”

About the Worcestershire Growth Hub Digital Adoption Programme

1. Initial Consultation – We’ll discuss your business goals, challenges, and current digital set-up.
2. Digital Health Check – Our team will review your systems, processes, and opportunities for improvement.

Why Assure Technical Was Chosen – Again

Our reappointment is based on the results we delivered during the previous programme period. For example, we helped manufacturers implement AI-driven quality control, retailers improve online sales platforms, and professional services strengthen their cybersecurity posture.

Because we combine deep technical expertise with an understanding of commercial priorities, we guide businesses towards solutions that work in the real world. We do not recommend technology for technology’s sake – instead, we help clients adopt tools that integrate seamlessly with their operations and deliver measurable benefits.

Helping Businesses Overcome Digital Challenges

We recognise that digital adoption can feel daunting. There may be uncertainty about which tools to choose, how to manage costs, or how to ensure staff embrace new systems. That’s why our approach is both consultative and practical. In addition, we work alongside businesses from planning through to implementation and review, ensuring technology delivers on its promise.

As part of the programme, we can draw on our full portfolio of services to deliver maximum benefit, including:

• Cybersecurity Audits and Strategy – Protecting sensitive data, networks, and systems from evolving threats.
• AI Integration – Automating processes, improving decision-making, and unlocking new efficiencies.
• Cloud Migration and Optimisation – Improving flexibility, scalability, and resilience.
• Data Analytics – Turning raw data into actionable insights for better business decisions.
