ertzian has been granted the pleasure to represent the entirety of Cornwall at the upcoming Interceltic Business Awards, which is being held in Lorient, France, on August 4th. At this event, our CEO, Christopher Weavill, will be giving a presentation showcasing everything that Hertzian is capable of, with the goal of showing how we stand out from the crowd.Hertzian is deeply rooted in our beautiful home region of Cornwall, and being chosen to showcase our talents and innovations on an international stage is truly an honour. It’s partially because of events like these that Hertzian is capable of continued growth and spreading influence. PlayerXP already plays a part in the development of video games from several development studios of all sizes, from all over the world, and this is just one example of our influence.
Yet, despite Hertzian’s reach, our heart will always be firmly planted in Cornwall. It’s through growing ourselves that we will help not only Cornwall grow, but all the other Celtic regions, which often find themselves underestimated and overlooked. We hope that showcasing what Hertzian and PlayerXP can do at this event will give a good example of how exceptional the Celtic regions can be.
The Interceltic Business Awards provide us with a platform to showcase who we are. Our goals, vision, and mission will all be highlighted, and we are confident that our ambition will carry us through to the end of these awards.
Shout out to our fellow regional award winners!
SQR – Isle of Man
Alkimii – Ireland
Engineer a Career – Scotland
Cavefish AI – Wales
Fendsea – Brittany
We can’t wait to see everyone at the event! Together, we're all working towards making the Celtic nations even better, and it’s going to be great to connect and share ideas with all of you. Let’s make a positive impact together!
