SPECIAL EVENT - ICM opening new London Business Continuity Centre - 16th May
OFFICIAL OPENING OF LONDON’S NEWEST AND MOST COMPREHENSIVE OUTER LONDON BUSINESS CONTINUITY CENTRE
Tuesday 16th May 2006 - 2.00pm
ICM is launching their latest Business Continuity Centre in Romford, a stunning new site designed for the specific demands of the London and Essex markets.
This £30m investment allows ICM to provide the only large scale Outer London based Business Continuity solution to London companies. Only 20 minutes by train from Liverpool Street station, the London Essex centre spans 73,000 sq ft with 1,700 workplace and dealing positions. It meets all of the exacting demands of the London finance and general business market in terms of site resilience, technology, location and sheer scale.
ICM’s London Essex centre represents the first significant investment in new facilities for the London Business Continuity market in nearly four years. It offers a long overdue response to increased concerns resulting from both co-ordinated terrorism and the fear of other widespread disruption within the nation’s capital.
ICM is the only provider with a pre-planned inner/outer London recovery solution with the provision of some 3.000 seats at sites diversely located in Wapping, Sevenoaks and High Wycombe in addition to Romford, all within 1 hour radius of the capital.
The launch of ICM’s Romford business continuity centre combines with ICM’s continuing efforts to offer transparent risk management for companies served by external Business Continuity providers in London and in this vein is launched with defined subscriber ratios and tight exclusion zone management.
The launch begins at 2pm with a drinks reception, followed by presentations and fully interactive tour of the facilities. The celebrations continue with a performance by the popular Blues Brothers tribute band, ‘The Sounds of the Blues’. Food will be served, drinks will flow and as the enclosed invitation suggests, let ICM take away your business continuity blues!

Notes:
In addition to the solid Inner/Outer London strategy, ICM’s nationwide strategy means that the majority of UK businesses are within an hour’s drive of their nearest ICM business continuity centre. In fact, over 78% of the UK business population (and rising!) have access to not one, not two, but even three ICM business continuity centres within the vital 60 minute drive-time radius. This provides not only flexibility, but back-up to the back-up. ICM appreciates that this is a significant prospect for smaller organisations, which may not have the budget to cover dedicated space but need to be confident that their syndicated space is kept available – even when other organisations need to invoke at the same time.
ICM Computer Group is an IT Services company dedicated to delivering business availability 24x7x365. Through a network of 23 locations strategically sited across the UK, ICM guarantees that 98 per cent of UK businesses are never more than two hours away from an ICM business support centre.
