You're In Business

FosseTech (Fosse Communications) is a legitimate, albeit small, UK-based Managed Service Provider (MSP) offering standard IT, cybersecurity, and telecom solutions. While the services (Microsoft 365, VoIP, Cyber Essentials) have clear real-world utility for local SMEs, the project submission suffers significantly from exaggerated claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product') and misused financial terminology ('marketcap'). There is no evidence of technical innovation beyond standard service delivery, and the 'everyone' audience reach claim is unrealistic for a regional provider.
