The people behind your IT.
In 2004, Jason and Amy Agnew started Belton from a spare room. Twenty-two years on, it's a 40-person practice serving 469 organisations across New Zealand and Australia.
Built in a spare room. Run on relationships.
The storyBelton didn't start with capital or a grand plan. In the early 2000s Jason was training as a pilot; the industry downturn after 2001 closed that door. So he placed an ad in the East and Bays Courier, "PC REPAIR Services – Call Jason", with the home phone number on it, and he and Amy started fixing computers from the spare room, taking every job that rang. The flying never happened. The checklists stayed.
"We took every job we could to learn, grow and improve. The early years weren't about profit. They were about understanding what good IT support actually looked like."
A few years in came the bet that named the company: the chance to acquire a small firm called IT Nexus, without the capital to fund it outright. The risk paid off. By 2008 the business had its first million-dollar year and a new name, and the spare room gave way to real offices. From there: the Microsoft partnership and the cloud years, a 24/7 security operations capability built with global SOC partners, expansion into Australia, and the 40-strong Newmarket practice serving 469 organisations today. The core hasn't changed: relationships first, structured delivery, and honest advice even when it costs us.
A nexus is a connection point: a series of connections linking many things. That's the job as we see it. Connecting your business to the right technology, your team to the tools they need, and your organisation to security capability it couldn't build alone.
