Thank you to everyone who attended our Open Day last week at our new studio and workshop in Warwick.
More than 70 visitors, friends, colleagues, and partners were welcomed throughout the afternoon. They were treated to a tour, demonstrations, and lots of home-made Italian food and refreshments. Everyone also left their mark paint balling onto canvases that will be hung in the reception area as a reminder of the great day.
We hope those of you who were unable to visit will drop by to see us soon.
Thank you to you all for making our day most memorable.

It is an intoxicating mix of new ideas from small start up companies like the Bluetooth key less padlock from Noke, to some ground breaking ideas from the major players like the transparent TV from Panasonic, and the launch of new companies like Future Faraday with a spectacular concept car.
