Finding the right distribution partner was paramount in signalling Hexnode's Channel focus, and Kite was the perfect fit. This partnership will ensure Hexnode's name is recognised in conjunction with the maturity of the platform.
Increasingly frequent cybersecurity threats, evolving regulatory mandates, and the widespread adoption of hybrid work models have made enterprise mobility and endpoint management a critical focus for UK businesses.

Recognising this demand, Hexnode and Kite Distribution will equip UK enterprises with advanced endpoint management solutions, helping them bolster security, maintain compliance, and seamlessly adapt to the evolving digital ecosystem.

Hexnode is a perfect addition for us, in the UEM space. We were impressed by the platform following internal evaluation and the feedback from several of our trusted partners. The channel proposition, offering both traditional resale and an MSP model, coupled with significant investments into the local UKI team, makes Hexnode the ideal vendor partner.'
Hexnode's UEM solution provides organisations with a unified console to manage and secure endpoints across multiple operating systems. With features such as Patch Management, Application Management, Remote Monitoring, and AI-driven Automation, Hexnode helps businesses streamline IT operations while maintaining a strong security posture. Apart from traditional endpoint management services, the platform also offers specialised solutions such as Kiosk Management, BYOD Management and Rugged Device Management enabling enterprises to optimise productivity and implement robust security strategies tailored to modern business environments.
As part of its global expansion, Hexnode recently added its UK based physical foothold at the iconic Gherkin. The office reinforces Hexnode's commitment to providing localised support, fostering stronger collaborations with UK businesses, and addressing region-specific IT challenges with agility.
'Throughout the exploration stages for a Distribution Partner for the UK region, Kite was quickly identified as the right choice for both businesses. With no competing technologies and plenty of complementary ones in their offering, Kite will help take our brand and our message to the UK market at scale, with care and expertise as we nicely fulfil the UEM solution for their portfolio,' stated Dan Pratt, Channel Manager at Hexnode. 'We feel that they embody the roles of 'Trusted Advisor & Trusted Disruptor' perfectly, bringing both established and new vendors into the forefront and we are extremely excited to see what this partnership can grow into.'

Drug maker Indivior joins the flight from London share listings
Drug maker Indivior has become the latest major UK listed company to scrap its London share trading. The pharmaceuticals company, which has its UK headquarters in Slough, said it planned to cancel its secondary listing in London. Indivior only moved its primary listing to Nasdaq last June and now wants to sever all share trading links with the City. The move comes just a year after Invidior's board said it planned to keep the London listing "for as long as it is considered to be in the best interests of Indivior and its shareholders as a whole." Reasons given for scrapping the London listing following a review include the fact that 80% of the company's revenue is generated in America; trading on Nasdaq accounts for approximately 75% of total volumes across both exchanges; more than 70% of the share are now held by investors located in the U.S; and the elimination of 'the cost and complexity of maintaining a secondary listing.' Another major factor is that the company's biggest selling drug Sublocade, a treatment for helping opioid addicts reduce their dependence, has its biggest market in the US. Last year Sublocade accounted for $756 million of the company's total $1.2 billion sales. Indivior was spun out of its former parent company, the consumer products giant Reckitt Benckizer in 2014 as a free standing London listed company. The Virginia based company's chair David Wheadon, said:"We are pleased to announce this key milestone for Indivior following our evaluation period. A single primary listing on Nasdaq best reflects the profile of Indivior's business. 'We appreciate the support received from shareholders for this initiative and look forward to capitalizing on the expected benefits of this move, including reductions in cost and complexity." London has suffered a major outflow of listed companies over recent years in a blow to the prestige of the City. A total of 88 firms delisted or transferred their primary listing from the London Stock Exchange last year, the highest number since the financial crisis of 2008, according to auditor EY. Only 18 companies came on to the London market last year as the vital flow of small and growing businesses raising capital by listing their shares on the London stock market dried up.

House prices rise by 0.5% month-on-month in May after April dip
House price growth accelerated in May, amid 'supportive' underlying conditions for home buyers, according to an index. Property values increased by 0.5% month-on-month in May, following a 0.6% fall in April, taking the average UK house price to £273,427, Nationwide Building Society said. The typical UK house price increased by 3.5% annually in May, compared with 3.4% in April. Robert Gardner, Nationwide's chief economist, said: 'Despite wider economic uncertainties in the global economy, underlying conditions for potential home buyers in the UK remain supportive.' A stamp duty holiday ended in March, with recent figures showing there was a stampede to get sales over the line before the deadline, followed by a transactions dip. HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) figures published last week showed an estimated 64,680 house sales took place in April – 64% lower than the 177,440 reported in March. The study indicated the figures had been affected by changes to stamp duty rates which apply in England and Northern Ireland. Outlining underlying conditions which could be positive for home buyers, Mr Gardner said: 'Unemployment remains low, earnings are rising at a healthy pace, household balance sheets are strong and borrowing costs are likely to moderate a little if (the Bank of England base rate) is lowered further in the coming quarters as we, and most other analysts, expect.' Iain McKenzie, chief executive of the Guild of Property Professionals, said: 'After the surge in transactions earlier this year, driven by the stamp duty deadline, April's drop in sales was expected. It's likely we'll see a short period of adjustment but agent sentiment, as captured in the latest (Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors) data, suggests optimism for the second half of the year.' Jason Tebb, president of OnTheMarket, said: 'Even though a considerable number of buyers brought forward transactions to take advantage of the stamp duty concession before it ended in March, there is still plenty of activity in the market now the incentive is no longer available.' He added: 'Lenders have been trimming mortgage rates and easing criteria in recent weeks which should help a little, giving buyers who rely on mortgages more wiggle room.' Alice Haine, a personal finance analyst at Bestinvest by Evelyn Partners, said: 'The traditional surge in listings at this time of year is a positive buyers can take advantage of, as a wider stock of homes to choose from raises the potential for heavier negotiation on price.' Tom Bill, head of UK residential research at Knight Frank said: 'There are tentative signs of momentum in the UK housing market after a slump in activity in April caused by higher rates of stamp duty but a dramatic rebound in prices doesn't feel likely. 'Concerns around inflation and the Government's financial headroom mean mortgage rates don't feel poised to drop meaningfully. Buyers also have a lot of properties to choose from this spring, which we expect to keep downwards pressure on prices in the short term.' David Johnson, managing director of property consultancy Inhous, said: 'Buyer demand picked up immediately after the bank holidays and has remained strong throughout May.' Karen Noye, mortgage expert at wealth manager Quilter said: 'Mortgage rates continue to improve meaning more buyers are finding the confidence to enter the market. 'Although lenders have started to reduce rates, many borrowers are still facing higher monthly costs than they would have a couple of years ago, particularly those coming off ultra-low fixed deals. Affordability stress testing also remains a barrier, with lenders continuing to apply caution particularly for those with smaller deposits or variable income. 'Some existing borrowers are resorting to term extensions or interest-only arrangements to ease the pressure on monthly budgets, but these are not long-term fixes and often result in higher overall repayment costs. 'The underlying issue is that property prices remain significantly out of line with average earnings, particularly in southern England, and that mismatch is limiting how far the market can stretch. 'Looking ahead, if interest rates fall further, we may see further house price increases, but with ongoing economic uncertainty, many would-be movers may decide to hold off until the outlook becomes clearer. The market is still navigating a complex landscape.'
