Specialists for your needs
Our team comprises technical business consultants, developers, designers, programmers and content managers so we bring the right people for the job.
Ideas, Thoughts and Solutions
Business people come to us with great ideas, often we contribute to the idea and develop the final product with much more value than the basic idea started with. This comes from listening and always consideing not just a solution, but the greater value we can deliver to you and your idea
Giving your idea the rocket fuel to boost it
If you have an idea, don't worry about the "this might sound like a stupid question/idea" - there are no such things (with some exceptions naturally!). We treat all new ideas for applications with the same consideration and respect and we will be honest, but if your idea is a great one, we will do all we can to help you achieve it
Client Feedback
1st Class Media worked closely with us to create the website for our research centre (the University of Edinburgh Centre for Cardiovascular Science). They have put in place a content management system that allows our administrators to manage the content of our pages quickly and easily. We are very pleased with the final product as it allows us to communicate well internally, with scientists elsewhere, and with the general public. Good communication is essential in science and our website helps us with this

Random Thoughts
Information technology and business are becoming inextricably interwoven. I don't think anybody can talk meaningfully about one without the talking about the other.
