BzzBees and Xanda Announce Strategic Partnership to Transform B2B Tech Channel
BzzBees is delighted to announce a strategic partnership with Xanda Ltd. Established in 1999, Xanda has a proven track record of delivering industry-leading cloud development and AI-powered projects for a prestigious client base that includes global brands and government agencies.
Under this partnership, agreed in November 2023, Xanda committed to a £350,000 pre-seed investment to support the development of Phase 1 of the BzzBees roadmap.
The BzzBees SaaS platform has been designed to simplify the transition to subscription services for the £138 billion B2B tech channel (made up of Distributors, Resellers & System Houses) . Phase 1 was successfully delivered ahead of schedule in March 2024. This substantial investment has been instrumental in accelerating the creation and deployment of BzzBees’ innovative solutions, enabling businesses to seamlessly adopt subscription-based models and enhance their operational efficiency.
The strategic partnership also sees two key members from Xanda’s leadership team taking on significant roles within BzzBees:
Alexander Constantine who is the Founder and Managing Director at Xanda, will assume the role of Co-Founder & Chairman of the Board at BzzBees. Alexander brings a wealth of strategic insight and leadership experience that will be vital in steering BzzBees towards its ambitious growth targets.
Alex Homans, co-director at Xanda, will also join BzzBees as CTO. Known for his expertise in cutting-edge technologies and successful project implementations, Alex will lead the technological advancements of the BzzBees platform, ensuring it delivers exceptional performance and user experience.
“Partnering with Xanda marks a significant step forward for BzzBees. Having known Xanda for over a decade, and worked on several large projects together in my former roles at Vodafone, Brightstar, Apple and Bechtle, it was a no brainer to work together in this new venture. What I wasn’t prepared for, and I must say was completely humbled by, was just how far Xanda wanted to be involved in this venture. Their investment and the addition of their leadership expertise will be crucial in realising our vision of transforming the B2B tech channel and their adoption of subscription-based propositions. We are excited about the opportunities this partnership brings and are confident it will drive significant growth and innovation.” – Dave Stockton, CEO BzzBees
“We are excited to be working with Dave and BzzBees to join their mission to revolutionise the tech industry. We have always been impressed with Dave’s vision to conceptualise innovative products that pave the way for groundbreaking developments. We believe BzzBees has massive potential to make meaningful change to how businesses buy and manage their tech. Our leadership team’s involvement underscores our commitment to this partnership and the success of BzzBees. We are delighted to be working with the BzzBees team to help achieve this potential.” – Alexander Constantine, MD Xanda, Chairman BzzBees
