Gyron's 9th birthday!

We’re pleased to announce that today is Gyron’s 9th birthday! It couldn’t come at a more exciting time, particularly with our new Centro datacentre facility opening soon and ushering in a new era for the company. Myself and the other Directors would like to thank all of our dedicated and enthusiastic staff for their hard work getting us to this point, and also our customers’ support and encouragement for making our continued growth possible. We look forward to working together for years to come!
