We’re delighted to announce that over the summer we moved into the Cable Yard at Electric Wharf, situated along the Coventy canal near the centre of the City.
We’re really excited by our new studio, which provides us with creative space to develop and grow the company as we start to see the fruit of the partnership between WebJetty and FLUID7 a year on.
We love nothing more than getting buried in bespoke projects that allow us to develop handcrafted applications and sites for our clients. That said, we don’t want to unnecessarily reinvent the wheel for each client, so unless their requirements are very bespoke we choose to build our solutions around existing open source products that provide feature rich, well developed and well tested solutions. Many well know web products are built this way, such as Google Chrome which is built by Google developers upon an open source foundation – so you’ve got to ask yourself does open source provide a way to develop web applications in a more cost/time effective manor?
As of the 1st October 2010, Web Jetty and FLUID7 have been one exciting new company!
We’re now trading as FLUID7 LTD and are really excited about the combined skills and services that these two web businesses has to offer.
On the 26th November we got together with a load of clients to celebrate the new company – we had a great time and took a load of photos. Find out more about the night and who took away prizes for Most Theatrical, Best Post and Most Humorous…
