On the East coast of England, separated from 'normal' civilisation is the city Norwich. A city that conjures up many unflattering assumptions and preconceived notions from the wider world. 'Patridgised' by Steve Coogan's legendary fictional creation, Alan Partridge, Norwich has had a hard time in shaking off this tired and backwards image but while the stereotype lingers the businesses of this fine city continue undeterred to produce some of the greatest and most creative digital work in the country.
Despite its reputation, Norwich is home to a number of amazing, industry-leading companies. These businesses are producing unparalleled work while enjoying a quality of life unrivaled by anywhere else in the UK. As a starting shot, very few know of EPIC studios - the former home of Trisha Goddard. EPIC is fully equipped with state of the art, full HD production and post capabilities, poised to start producing digital shows with some real production quality. The studio has already resurrected geeky nostalgia show Knightmare for YouTube's Geek Week which included the original cast and local YouTube star Stuart Ashens. As well as its production prowess, EPIC is hosting live events, bringing some of the UK's top talent right to the doorstep. Despite the A11.
Another hidden gem is FXHOME , a software company that makes professional photo and video editing software that is stirring things up in their profession . More powerful than the big boys such as Adobe and Final Cut , yet sensibly priced for the everyday amateur filmmaker , FXHOME is hoovering up new and growing markets with an active online and YouTube focus . Working with YouTube luminaries such as Corridor Digital and Freddie Wong the software company is aligning itself with an extremely unique and creative demographic that will stick with the successful new brand for years to come . It's also worth mentioning that FXHOME has its prime markets globally and in America yet still manages to find and attract the skills to the small coastal county of Norfolk . For a insight of the characteristics of the impressive company , take a look at the promotional video here .
Joining them online and with a digital delivery across YouTube and social media platforms is Lambda Films. Lambda is a video production and marketing company that creates productions for businesses that are tailored for an online delivery, a social audience and measurable results. The company, while young, has already produced work for the NHS, St John Ambulance, RG Carter, a number of Universities and offshore companies as well as winning a string of awards for their campaign work. For an insight in to the company and their Norwich roots, take a look at their Video Production Norwich video.
In the mobile arena, Proxama are pioneering the exciting NFC technology that allows mobile devices to interact with every day objects and points of sale. Infinitely more elegant and powerful than QR codes, NFC technology is looking to become one of the most game-changing technologies in the mobile device arena. Norwich was also the first city in the country to host an NFC hack due to its ties with Proxama. From the hack came many notable NFC ideas, including Blue Butterfly - a tap-to-wifi company that went on to great things following the event.
This is barely scratching the surface when it comes to innovative and industry leading companies in the small region of Norwich and Norfolk. There are many more that we'll be looking to uncover in our series of articles about the local business landscape so stay tuned!
