If you work in managed IT services—or partner with companies that do—there’s one event you’ll want to have on your radar: the Managed Services Summit London 2025.
Set in the heart of London, this summit is more than just a conference. It’s where the managed services industry comes together to network, share insights, and dig into what’s next for MSPs (Managed Service Providers), solution providers, vendors, and IT decision-makers.
Whether you’re an established MSP looking to scale, or you’re just exploring managed services as part of your business strategy, the summit is packed with real value.
What Is the Managed Services Summit?
The Managed Services Summit (MSS) is one of the UK’s leading gatherings for the managed services and IT channel community. The London edition, in particular, is a flagship event that attracts high-level MSPs, vendors, cloud service providers, cybersecurity experts, and industry analysts.
It’s where real conversations happen—about growth, technology trends, partnerships, and how to survive and thrive in today’s competitive IT services landscape.
Why This Year’s Summit Matters
The managed services market is evolving quickly. Between cybersecurity challenges, the rise of AI and automation, and growing customer expectations around uptime and support, MSPs are under pressure to innovate—or get left behind.
This year’s summit is focused on helping MSPs:
Build resilient business models
Improve operational efficiency through automation
Stay ahead of security and compliance risks
Navigate partnerships with vendors and distributors
Understand the impact of AI and next-gen tools on service delivery
Key Themes You Can Expect in 2025
Here are some of the hot topics set to take center stage at MSS London 2025:
1. AI for MSPs: Friend or Foe?
AI is changing the game for managed services—automating support, detecting threats faster, and helping teams scale. But it also brings new risks and client concerns. Expect real talk on how MSPs can use AI responsibly and profitably.
2. Security-as-a-Service
With cyber threats getting more complex, MSPs are evolving into MSSPs (Managed Security Service Providers). Sessions will dive into bundling security into service offerings and managing client risk more effectively.
3. Cloud and Hybrid Work Support
Post-pandemic IT has changed. MSPs need to support a mix of on-prem, cloud, and hybrid environments—and do it securely. This track will look at best practices and tools that help make it seamless.
4. Driving Recurring Revenue
Learn from top-performing MSPs who’ve mastered the art of recurring revenue through value-added services, long-term contracts, and customer lifecycle strategies.
5. Vendor and Partner Ecosystems
From RMM tools to cloud infrastructure, your vendor relationships can make or break your service delivery. Meet top vendors, explore new technologies, and see where the channel is heading.
