New jobs created at Digital Campus
vrijdag, 13 november 2009
An influx of companies into Sheffield's Digital Campus has created 20 new jobs with the possibility of more in the future, it has been announced.
The five firms, CapeUK, Day One Marketing, Vision Solutions, Stripey Design and Netsumo, have moved into the Electric Works on the campus.
CapeUK develops more creative ways of educating young people by working with teachers and others who work with children. The research agency's Creative Partnerships programme will involve approximately 150 schools in the region, while other education projects will be managed from the agency's new base.
Cape UK, like a number of the companies, cited being part of a creative community as one of the attractions of starting up or relocating to Sheffield's Digital Campus.
"We chose Electric Works as we collaborate with a range of creative practitioners including visual and multi-media developers so we need to be at the heart of the creative and digital sector," said Jo Garnham-Parks, CapeUK's operations director.
