Glory Days

Daniel Craig was 42 yesterday.Where did all those years go?

It will be Spring in three weeks and yet from the temperature outside today it feels a long way off.

Ian Appleton, the managing director of Chester mobile technology business Righttxt, has been named Young Entrepreneur of the Year at the annual Mobile Start Up Awards, held at the GSMA World Mobile Congress in Barcelona. He beat nine other finalists to take the award, which was open to business trading less than 12 months. Appleton told Inisider that the company is now gearing up for further expansion after opening a new office in Liverpool Science Park’s Innovation Centre 2. He said: “We’ll start with eight staff in Liverpool and then look to take on six new staff every three months. I imagine we’ll be looking to increase the space we have at the park in six months time.” Righttxt recently secured a contract from pub chain JD Wetherspoon to launch a text campaign in the South of England.
Always good to hear of local businesses doing well as mostly what we hear is doom and gloom but then it’s an ill wind and all that the likes of DTE in Manchester have been very busy.
