Innovation Centre

The Innovation Centre is a new set of high quality, purpose-built managed business premises on the south coast in East Sussex, which opened in the summer of 2006.

It is specially designed to help firms with an innovative approach to business grow and thrive. They offer a range of offices, studios and workshops, all fully equipped with the latest in telephony, broadband, meeting rooms, reception and clerical services. These premises are part of the regeneration programme for Hastings.

With the design already created it was our job to code the site using web standards. This means it’s accessible to all, fast-loading and easy to maintain. The site also makes an RSS news feed available to all site visitors for both the news and events sections. These feeds can be utilised using a news feed reader or a compatible web browser.

Online visitors can sign-up to events or submit their information for a free brochure.

The site is also compatible on a PDA and every page is printer friendly.

Behind the scenes we built a custom publishing system that allows any of their staff to update certain sections where necessary. Even at its most advanced levels it’s easy to understand and use. Even though this particular section is not viewable to normal visitors we still took the time to make it accessible.

It joins together with our other recent projects, eBiz Centre and the East Sussex Enterprise Hub, as part of the same network.
