12:00 AM – 9:00 AM

Grapevine MSP is the Central Valley’s largest managed IT services provider, based in Bakersfield, CA, with a clear mission: help businesses of all sizes thrive through smart, secure, and innovative technology. Founded in 2009 by CEO Joe Gregory during a recession, we’ve grown into a team of 60+ professionals recognized as an industry leader. We go beyond fixing computers by partnering with our clients to deliver proactive IT support, cybersecurity, cloud, and VoIP solutions, strategic consulting, and 24/7 help desk services. As Microsoft Tier 1 Partners and community supporters, we’re known for our “let’s figure it out” culture, commitment to customer success, and passion for solving real-world technology challenges.
