“The MSP 501 is the most competitive merit-based list of MSPs around the world,” says Taher Hamid, VP of business development, Alltek Services (winner of the 2021 Lifetime Achievement award). “We were humbled to be recognized as one of the top MSPs in the world. I’m so proud of what we’re building right here in Lakeland, [Florida]. This community has been instrumental in enabling us to succeed. Our company mission is to build a great company with great people. This is just another testament of us working to achieve that mission!”
