Why Red Kite Technology Solutions Exists
Red Kite Technology Solutions was born from a simple observation: small businesses deserve the same quality of technology support that larger enterprises take for granted.
Too often, local businesses are left struggling with unreliable networks, inadequate security, and technology that hinders rather than helps. They need someone who understands both the technology and the business — not just a vendor who installs equipment and disappears.
Founded by a software engineer with over a decade of experience across large multinationals and tech start-ups, RKTS brings a technology-first approach to small business problems. The difference? We actually understand what a 5-person business needs — and more importantly, what it doesn't.
Why Red Kite?
I chose the name because I love watching the red kites fly over my home and dive for food in the garden. They’re magnificent birds, and they’re a constant reminder of why I live where I do.
Starting this business was also about a desire to work more locally — serving the area I live in and grew up in. That’s what Red Kite is about: local roots, personal commitment.

Most technology companies specialise narrowly. We engage with the full problem — networks, security, software, automation, data — whatever it takes to solve it.
Local & Accountable
Based in Wing, Buckinghamshire. When something needs attention, we're there quickly. Not a faceless remote vendor.
Products From Real Problems
Our software products aren't invented in isolation. Every product starts as a problem we've seen repeatedly through consultancy work.

Deep Roots in Buckinghamshire
Based in Wing, we serve businesses throughout Buckinghamshire and the surrounding region. We understand the unique character of businesses here — from independent retailers in market towns to professional services firms in converted period buildings.
