Uprise recognized for helping midsized organizations strengthen security, transform IT operations, and accelerate growth.

Uprise Partners, a leading cybersecurity and IT managed services provider, announced today that MES Computing, a brand of The Channel Company, has awarded the company a spot on its 2026 MES Midmarket 100 list.  

The annual MES Midmarket 100 recognizes technology vendors with deep knowledge of the unique IT needs of midmarket organizations. These vendors are committed to delivering future-focused products and services that support growth, innovation, and success for their midsize customers.

MES Computing defines midmarket organizations as those with an annual revenue of $50 million to $2 billion and/or 100 to 2,500 total supported users/seats. Vendors were selected for the MES Midmarket 100 for their go-to-market strategy, how they innovate to serve the midmarket better, and the strength of their midmarket product portfolios.

Uprise Partners was recognized for its purpose-built approach to serving the unique needs of midmarket organizations. Through IT Services Management and Professional Services organizations, and proprietary Kineo Technology Platform, Uprise delivers enterprise-grade cybersecurity, managed IT services, AI enablement, and strategic Virtual CIO (vCIO) services designed specifically for organizations that require comprehensive IT support but lack the internal resources of large enterprises. By combining 24/7 monitoring, proactive cybersecurity, cloud management, and strategic IT planning into one powerful managed service, Uprise helps midsized organizations reduce operational complexity, strengthen security, and confidently support long-term growth.

“The Midmarket 100 highlights the technology vendors that genuinely understand—and actively champion—the distinct needs of midsize organizations,” said Samara Lynn, senior editor of MES Computing at The Channel Company. “These companies are true partners, equipping midmarket IT teams to overcome their toughest challenges so they can innovate and accelerate growth. We’re excited to watch how these vendors continue to evolve and strengthen the midmarket ecosystem.”

"We're honored to be recognized on the MES Midmarket 100 because it reflects our commitment to solving the challenges midsized organizations face every day," said Malinda Gagnon, CEO of Uprise Partners. "The midmarket requires a different approach—their needs are just as complex as Fortune 500 organizations, and they require comprehensive support at the C-level to day-to-day management. We built Uprise to provide enterprise-level technology expertise, proactive cybersecurity, and strategic IT leadership in a way that's purpose-built for growing organizations. Our goal is simple: ensure IT operates seamlessly so our clients can focus on growing thriving businesses."
