We recently attended the Sunderland Echo Portfolio Business Awards 09 which was held at the Stadium of Light on the 15th October. Big winners of the night were Sunderland Football Club who collected awards for Business of the Year, Business Tourism of the Year and the Training Award. Our very own David Lynch of Lynch Healthcare collected the award for Entrepreneur of the Year.

The win at the Portfolio Awards has capped of an amazing year, from being unhappy in a minority partnership, to setting up two businesses and winning entrepreneur of the year just reiterates my theory of if you really want something and remove the barriers, anything is possible
David Lynch

We’d like to thank Wood Holmes and David Spencer for enjoying the evening with us.

Smashing, Lovely, Super…

This month, we have had a great response from a desktop design created by our very own Gareth Davies called ‘Cultural Growth of Computers’. It has been highlighted by the highly recognised ‘Smashing Magazine’ as one of April’s Desktop downloads.

The graphic represents a time in history at a glance. Technology plays a massive role in the lives of all and we have represented this in it’s simplest form. - Gareth Davies, Creative Manager

The project was In partnership with Wood Holmes Group, a strategy, research, and futures company based in Newcastle with offices also in London and Manchester. The concept was produced to show the growth of computers and to present to school children across the region, portraying how fast technology has developed and discuss future directions which will undoubtedly effect both their lives and careers. The project has been a huge success and has already been shipped out to over 500 pupils each receiving their own A1 poster. Download the Cultural Growth of Computers desktop here.
