Point One News

This digital world

Mon, 18 Jan 2010 22:21:22 GMT

Most new enquiries or telesales conversations we have these days include the words 'do you do websites'. Well, yes we do and have actually become rather experienced in designing, developing and hosting bespoke sites. However, what we call our digital services does not stop there. Tailor-made powerpoints through to interactive pdfs and other digital media all form part of Point Ones total service package to new and established clients. We are pleased to say that in 24 years of business Point One has always moved with the times. In 1989 we were amongst the first to invest in Apple Mac technology and have never looked back!

3 websites go live

The two Eco's. Season's Greetings from Point One

Fri, 12 Dec 2008 09:30:30 GMT

'Ecology' and 'the Economy' are high on all of our minds this year so the idea of planting trees instead of sending Christmas cards seemed, once again, to fit the mood.

This year we have arranged, as a token of our appreciation, to plant sapling trees at Theydon Bois Wood in Essex, on behalf of our customers and valued suppliers.

Point One is delighted to be sharing our annual "trees dedication" with you and to wish you a very enjoyable festive season.

We look forward to working with you again next year.

From all the Point One team

The studio will be closing at 5pm on Tuesday 23rd December and returning, invigorated for the new year, on Monday 5th January.

What we cannot show

Wed, 11 Jul 2007 17:21:34 GMT

Non-disclosure agreements are commonplace at Point One. Confidentiality is very important to us and our clients so a very high percentage of what Point One create are future concepts that we cannot show to an audience, whether on this website or in our portfolios when we visit clients. This applies to the large corporates for whom we work globally to the start-up company with the next big idea.
