Building for success The purpose-built centre will consist of 5,625 ft2 of office space and will provide state-of-the-art facilities for 30 new businesses employing up to 60 people. The centre is scheduled to open in Summer 2008. Fluid IT Solutions are involved in every aspect of the IT sector, such as consultancy, web design, networking, installation and IT support packages. Paul explains "We tailor our services to our clients' exact requirements and provide all the IT capabilities they need, leaving them free to concentrate on their core business activities. Not only do we provide creative IT solutions, we aim to offer an exemplary level of customer service including total reliability and second-to-none response times."
For Paul it has been a fantastic step. "Great facilities, quieter environment, more room, business advice on hand and networking with like-minded people have all made the move into the Centre worthwhile, not to mention regaining a dining room and a more peaceful home life!" The business - Total Embedded Solutions - is going from strength to strength. "I have just clinched big order with Salta Engineering GMBh to provide an electronic unit to monitor the weight and angle of industrial baskets on large machines. A workman was recently crushed to death by one of these machines, this unit provides a failsafe which will prevent this happening again."
Designed to give new businesses valuable advice and support in their early stages, the Mentor initiative is developing well with nearly 20 companies now taking part in the scheme. Keith Richardson of Richardson Hotels is the latest mentor to get off the mark and has recently started working with a local food company.
To accommodate these, the communal area is being moved to a new location and some desks redistributed within the open plan area. Come to the First Friday meeting on the 7th Sept and check out the new layout. |

When Paul Bearne mentioned the idea of moving into the Torbay Innovation Centre to his wife, she packed his things that night! After 6 months of working from the dining room, surrounded by computers and electronic equipment, the time had come to find more suitable premises.
Paul has just returned from China where the units will be manufactured. "The trip was fantastic and the people are fabulous. I am really excited about the next stage - the prototype is currently being tested in the UK and production should start in the autumn."
