Beyond the Invisible
Beyond the Invisible grew out of a successful IT company founded by Simon and Jane Scotland in 2001 offering high quality, reliable and easy to use residential integration solutions. Beyond the Invisible quickly became the larger part of the business, so a decision was made in 2003 to concentrate solely on home integration. Since then Beyond the Invisible has become one of the leading UK companies in this sector.
