Dragon's Den success! Accessibility, and IMPACTFUL design

WELCOME, we're still beaming from the recent success of Brightwave's Local Government E-Learning Service at a Dragon's Den session during the COSLA Conference in St Andrews.

Gill Bhatti, from South Lanarkshire Council, did a tremendous job. She pitched the case for e-learning to a panel of five council leaders. All judges gave unanimous backing and 88% of delegates agreed. And, now that we've been awarded preferred supplier status on the Buying Solutions framework it's faster and easier for public sector organisations to procure our services.
