Aside from new clients, Beeks has also been expanding its business which, in turn, has brought in more revenue streams.

The tech firm also saw growth as a result of its partnership with BeQuant Exchange, a cryptocurrency firm based in London and Malta.
"Following an excellent close to the year, during which Beeks signed three Tier 1 clients, we have entered the new financial year in a strong position and enjoyed a good level of trading in the first two months of the year," said Beeks CEO Gordon McArthur.
"Our core business with mid-tier organisations continues to grow and we are now layering on more strategic engagements with larger organisations."
