New Site Launch: eg technology

By Featured, Our Work, Web Design

Content managed website build for product design, engineering & development specialist.

After a competitive pitching process came to an end, we were excited to have the opportunity to re-design the eg technology website. Wanting more autonomy over the site, eg specified a CMS that would allow them more control over content creation, layout and editing. They also wanted more functionality from the site to allow a more advanced marketing output.

Our new solution is far more flexible and easy to use when it comes to editing content, but is also sophisticated and better optimised for mobile visitors.

Launch Website

”We approached Blayney with the challenge of not only refreshing the front end of our website, but also providing a new CMS to allow us full control over the back end of the website. From the initial conversations to the project delivery, the team at Blayney fully understood our requirements and went above and beyond with their delivery. They took the time to understand our brand and mission and ensured that our ethos was echoed throughout the site.

We have had some excellent feedback on the site and are really happy with the ease of which we can manage content and are grateful for the support that the team at Blayney provide us with.”

AGM Portal & ESG Brochure Design for Horizon Capital

By Featured, Our Work, Technology, Web Design
AGM PORTAL & ESG BROCHURE

Creating Market Leading Businesses

We have been working with Horizon Capital as a creative partner for over 6 years helping them rebrand and redesign websites for a large percentage of their portfolio, as well as undertaking a complete rebrand from Lyceum Capital to Horizon Capital in 2019.

Amidst all the uncertainty in global markets, 2021/2022 was another good year of growth for Horizon Capital and its portfolio companies.

Horizon Capital provides the first institutional capital to high growth entrepreneurial led businesses and then delivers practical support as they lead their portfolios on intensive buy and build journeys.

Each year Horizon Capital hold an AGM to review and discuss portfolio success. Certain marketing assets need to be created to invite guests to the live event, hosted at the companies new offices inside The Shard, London. The event was privately streamed using Vimeo Live. Signing in pages with countdown timers were built to access the live event and monitor viewers.

An important part of the AGM was Horizon’s commitment to Environmental, social, and corporate governance. ESG is an approach to evaluating the extent to which a corporation works on behalf of social goals that go beyond the role of a corporation to maximise profits on behalf of the corporation’s shareholders.

Horizon required the creation of a branded ESG document. The document needed to be produced in both digital and printed formats under extremely tight deadlines. Intricate graphs and data wheels sit alongside bold imagery to illustrate Horizon’s social goals and apply best practices to deliver constant improvement across all aspects of their work.

”“We seek to continuously improve and deepen our understanding and commitment to the principles of Responsible Investing and ESG. We measure the extent and effectiveness with which we apply ESG factors in our assessment of each investment opportunity and throughout the life of our investments - our goal being to apply best practices and deliver constant improvement.”

Fantastic Feedback from Agilico Website & Rebrand

By Branding, Featured, Our Work, Web Design

We were proud to receive some great feedback from the shareholders & sales leads at recent client of ours & workspace technology expert 'Agilico'.

Agilico is a leading provider of workplace technology, with capabilities that span managed print services, information management solutions, agile working technology, telecommunications and managed IT services. Agilico supports businesses across the UK by helping them build more effective and agile working environments for their teams.

As another successful pitch process came to an end, we were selected by directors Chris Rixon & Sam Saunders to play an integral role in the rebrand and restructure of DMC Canotec – what would eventually become ‘Agilico’. This would involve a new company name, a new logo and corporate identity, closely followed by a new website. After working with Chris before as part of one of our many endeavours into the Horizon portfolio, we were excited to again have the opportunity to be involved in another sector defining operation.

View Case Study

Fast forward to 2022, the project was completed and the launch of the new website was a great success.

We were really proud to receive some amazing feedback on our rebrand & web build project from many significant sections of the Agilico internal team, and some from their largest clients.

Steffans Jewellers Family Christmas

By Advertising, Our Work
FAMILY – ‘WHERE LIFE BEGINS & LOVE NEVER ENDS’

Christmas 2020 will certainly be one to remember. Above all it certainly highlights just how important Family really is.

Steffans Jewellers campaigns are something of an institution and have always been very poignant with the sign-of-the-times. We have been working with them for over 25 years and they have always given something exciting back to their loyal fan base every Christmas.

The Steffans Jewellers 2020 Christmas campaign is all about Family and the Northampton based jeweller has beautifully integrated a fabulous custom free gift with every purchase over £50.00.

FAMILY TREES

The perfect message for a shocked world

The free family tree keyring brings a key message to a world shocked by a catastrophic pandemic and symbolises the importance of family during troubled times. Our involvement was to produce all the point-of-sale material to support the campaign. This involved the production of both Northampton and Market Harborough’s window displays, billboards and all external large format advertising.

With all the rules and Christmas regulations in limbo, it was difficult to find something that would work if the country went back into lockdown. We created an image that depicts what all of our families have had in common for the last year…..Walking in forests, parks and countryside. The connection with our families and the outdoors is yet again another poignant reminder of where this year has taken us all.

NTFC promoted to League One after play-off win

By Featured, Sport

Northampton celebrated promotion to Sky Bet League One after inflicting further play-off final heartache on Exeter with a crushing 4-0 victory at an empty Wembley.

Strikes from Ryan Watson, Callum Morton, Sam Hoskins and substitute Andy Williams earned the Cobblers a resounding win in the behind-closed-doors clash.

Toothless Exeter were second best throughout the contest and endured another miserable trip to the capital, losing this winner-takes-all fixture for the third time in four seasons.

We are immensely proud of Northampton Town Football Club tonight and are thrilled to be part of the clubs success as the official creative partner

We won’t forget this victory in a hurry. ‘League One – Here we come.’ Big congratulations to all the Boyz.

Come on the cobblers!⁣

Happy VE Day: It’s In The Blood

By World News
OUR HERO

As we celebrate VE Day, 75 years on, The Blayney Partnership remembers its roots.

Major Douglas Edward Blayney – or Bob as he was nicknamed – was one of the first to land on Sword Beach – D-Day 1944. Leading the infantry with his mortar team, making way for the armoury, allowing them to restore order and capture the town of Touffeville. From dusk til dawn, he was under constant shell fire from the enemy.

What Bob and his men would have gone through, would have been like nothing any of us could have experienced before. The sacrifice that so many made to allow us to live the lives we have today, is something we as a country will be forever thankful for.

During a full day of relentless attack, he led his troops to their objective. He was largely responsible for the regiment achieving their goal. His actions were described as ‘most gallant with commendable courage’. As a result Major Douglas Edward Blayney was awarded the Military Cross from Field Marshall Montgomery. Congratulations on the achievement later followed in the post, with a hand signed letter from King George VI – Buckingham Palace.

As a supremely talented artist, Bob attended ‘Camberwell School of Art’. This was something he later picked up again long after the war, when he continued to utilise his creative flair working as an exhibition designer for a many years before his eventual retirement.

This passion for creativity and his dedication to the arts, was something that was later handed down to his son, Robert. Who followed in his fathers footsteps when he started work as Studio Manager at major electrical firm, Crompton Parkinson, based in London. Rob later joined a Photographic Company, based in Northampton. With his first move being; the opening of his own design division. After many successful years, Rob’s ambitious character, and self driven attitude inspired him to form a business of his own, which you may have guessed, went on to become ‘The Blayney Partnership’.

Fast forward to 2020, our squadron of creative breeds is now guided by director Ozz Blayney – grandson of Douglas. With Accounts Manager Julie Blayney, commercial photographer Abby Blayney, and young designer Oliver Blayney also within the ranks, you may now appreciate why we believe that ‘Creativity Comes Naturally’.

Had Bob been alive today, we would be celebrating his 100th birthday on the 20th June.

Artist. Father. Grandfather. Our Hero.
