Ted Shafran with Brad Shafran

Toronto, ON – January 1, 2025 – Connectability is proud to announce a leadership transition as Founder and long-time President, Ted Shafran, steps back from day-to-day operations. As of January 1, 2025, Brad Shafran has been appointed as the company’s new President.

Ted Shafran founded Connectability in 1995 with a mission to deliver class-leading IT support tailored to the needs of small and medium-sized businesses. Under his leadership, Connectability has grown into a trusted IT partner known for its responsiveness, reliability, and customer-first approach.

“It’s hard to believe that was nearly 30 years ago,” said Ted. “As I passed my 69th birthday last September, I’ve decided that it’s time for me to step back and pass the reins of Connectability on to a younger generation. Brad has been instrumental in our evolution over the past decade, and I’m confident in his vision for the future.”

Brad, who joined Connectability in 2014, has played a key role in expanding service offerings, streamlining operations, and driving innovation. With nearly 11 years at the forefront of Connectability’s growth, he is well-positioned to lead Connectability into its next phase.

“I’m honoured to lead Connectability forward,” said Brad. “We’re continuing to grow and adapt in a fast-changing landscape, and my focus will remain on delivering exceptional service, strengthening cybersecurity, and helping our clients use technology to achieve their business goals.”

Ted will remain involved in Connectability’s long-term strategic planning, though he will no longer participate in day-to-day operations. For operational matters, clients are encouraged to contact Service Delivery Manager Kate McLeod or Brad directly.

This transition marks a significant milestone in Connectability’s journey, reinforcing its commitment to stability, growth, and client success for years to come.
