Happy New Y.. hang on, it's nearly Feb?

Needless to say, we hope you had a lovely holiday season and are well away to an exciting 'new year of opportunities.' We should trademark that.

Anyway, welcome to the infrequent* Cortex newsletter - a round-up of what's happening in Cortex-land.

News from Cortex HQ

Seriously, how is it nearly Feb? The usual New Year chaos has been and gone and we're now well in to the swing of things with client work and Cortex work.

The main news is we're firmly up to 6 members of staff - indoctrination of our latest recruit is nearly complete, at which point we'll unleash his mysterious identity to the world. (Or else just ask us.)

Things and stuff

Secret Squirrel

Cortex product #1 is getting ever closer to being ready. We're still just a little early (scared) to announce exactly what it is... but the image over there is a cheeky hint. Sort of.

Cortex gets noisy

Look out for us in this month's Business Brief magazine for a fascinating insight to Cortex's 1st year. And we'll also be in the Guernsey Press answering tech questions - got a burning question? Let us know!

Global Game Jam Guernsey!

The game jam is this weekend at the Digital Greenhouse and Cortex are delighted to sponsor it (and take part!) If you fancy seeing what's involved in making games (of all types) then find out more here!

Bright Futures

We're also delighted to support Bright Futures - a charitable initiative for Guernsey to help people of all ages and skills remain valuable in the workplace. Their inaugural Summit - featuring inspiring speakers from the likes of the FT, Amazon and more is in March - see here for more info.

That should do for now. If you want more, then we should have a new website launching any day now*** and we're also doing some more Twitter-y type things for a (possibly) daily dose of Cortex-goodness.

But until next time, all the best from Cortex HQ xx

* Monthly or so, or when we remember or have something interesting** to say.
** Yardstick of what's interesting is currently indeterminate.
*** As is 'any day now' in the release cycle of something we build.

We hope you enjoyed this newsletter and want to receive it but, as ever, if not, simply unsubscribe. We won't mind too much. Sniff.
