How Refreshing, A Technology company where more technology isn't always the answer.

GLOBAL MARKET INNOVATORS (GMI)

A funny thing happens when you consider the problem without a solution already in mind. Spoiler: it’s better solutions. We aren’t technology sellers. We’re problem solvers. We understand your situation. Then, we apply in-the-trenches knowhow plus security smarts to help your organization achieve business goals with security best practices in mind. We assess. We advise. We optimize. We monitor and manage. And, when we sell you something, it’s exactly what you need.

HISTORY

Though the GMI flag was first hoisted in 2020, our prehistory goes way back. Owners Vicki and Simer S. Mayo saw the need for a company with the capacity, knowledge and experience to address large, complex technology challenges while retaining small business agility and personal attention. Adding the right pieces over time, our current makeup includes over 80 combined years of proven results and a unique blend of technology and security capabilities.  It’s through the realization of this vision that GMI has become the OG single stop for secure technology solutions.

OUR TEAM

GMI Executive Leadership Team

GMI’s delivery team features nearly 150 security, collaboration, networking and data center engineers and architects across our project management, staff augmentation, managed and consulting practices. We boast most key industry and best-in-class technology certifications. And even better, we work as a team, so every GMI consultant or service provider benefits from our combined experience and smarts. With GMI, you’ll have not just the right people, but the right team, on the job.  

We are a woman and minority-owned business, and proud to be a certified diversity supplier.
