Scottish Exhibition and Conference Centre invests in business critical infrastructure from Maindec

Scottish Exhibition and Conference Centre in Glasgow (SECC), Scotland’s premier national venue for events, concerts and conferences, employed the services of IT solutions and support specialists Maindec in 2000 to ensure the smooth-running of business-critical operations including SECC Glasgow’s online ticketing service, ticketSOUP.com.

The IT supply and 24/365 maintenance service on hardware worth in excess of £250,000 provided by Maindec over the past 10 years has made a dramatic difference for SECC Glasgow in building a robust IT infrastructure and eliminating server down-time that SECC Glasgow cannot afford.

The Scottish Exhibition and Conference Centre is an iconic landmark venue in the city of Glasgow. The SECC Glasgow provides a wide-range of events, concerts, conference and exhibition facilities along with a 4* hotel all under one roof.
