Your Trusted Boston IT Company Serving Lowell’s Innovation-Driven Business Community
Lowell stands at the forefront of Massachusetts’s economic renaissance—a city that has successfully reinvented itself from textile manufacturing powerhouse to technology and innovation hub. From the groundbreaking Lowell Innovation Network Corridor (LINC) and UMass Lowell’s research facilities to the converted mill buildings housing tech startups, healthcare providers, and established enterprises, Lowell businesses require technology infrastructure that matches their forward-thinking approach.
Radius Executive IT brings Boston’s premier managed IT services directly to Lowell, delivering the enterprise-grade capabilities and personalized support that the Mill City’s dynamic business community needs to thrive.
Why Lowell Businesses Require World-Class IT Support
As Massachusetts’s fifth-largest city, Lowell is experiencing its “third wave” of economic development—one built on technology, innovation, education, and inclusive growth. The city attracts major employers like UKG (formerly Kronos), IBM, JABRA, Lowell General Hospital, and MACOM Technology Solutions, while also fostering a vibrant ecosystem of startups, medical device companies, research firms, and small businesses through spaces like the UMass Lowell Innovation Hub, M2D2 medical device center, and Mill No. 5.
Located at the strategic intersection of Routes 3 and 495, just 25 miles from Boston, Lowell offers businesses sophisticated urban amenities with a supportive, community-focused environment. But with this opportunity comes heightened expectations for technology performance and security.
Lowell businesses operate in highly competitive, often regulated environments where technology failures can disrupt research and development, compromise patient information, halt production, expose intellectual property, or damage client relationships. When you’re developing cutting-edge medical devices, managing healthcare data, conducting university research partnerships, or scaling a tech startup, your IT infrastructure must be bulletproof.
The challenge? Lowell companies need enterprise-level IT capabilities without the overhead and limitations of maintaining large internal technology departments. Executives and managers should focus on innovation, growth, and serving customers—not managing servers, fighting cybersecurity threats, or troubleshooting network problems. That’s precisely the gap Radius Executive IT Solutions fills.

What Sets Radius Executive IT Apart for Lowell Businesses
Boston Expertise, Lowell Accessibility: We’re part of the Greater Boston technology ecosystem with a deep understanding of the innovation and research environment that defines modern Lowell. Based in nearby Andover, MA, we provide the personalized attention of a local partner combined with enterprise-level technical capabilities that match the sophistication of Lowell’s business community.
Healthcare & Research Excellence: Lowell is home to significant healthcare organizations and cutting-edge research at UMass Lowell—exactly where Radius Executive IT has built specialized expertise. Our team brings over 75 years of collective experience in healthcare IT alone, with deep knowledge of HIPAA compliance, electronic health records, and the specialized technology used in medical facilities. We also understand the unique requirements of research environments, from data security to collaboration tools.
Technology Industry Focus: As Lowell attracts more technology companies and startups, we bring the expertise these organizations need.
