Written by: Rob Eddythinkstockphotos-486047264-converted With the holidays getting into full swing, our thoughts turn to travel, traditions, and opportunities to spend time with family and friends–as well as looking forward to the coming year. We’ve made it part of our traditions here at IG to focus our attention at this time of year on appreciation. Appreciation for each other–we’ve got an unique and talented team. Appreciation for our clients–those who are new and those who have been with us for many of our 21 years of operation, and appreciation for the work we do–which is always challenging, changing, and never boring! We’ve worked on an exceptionally wide range of projects this year–including an increasing number of 3D animated and interactive projects. Our focus has been to develop high-usability technical content and help our clients leverage that content wherever THEY need it–be it print, animation, web, or interactive. Along those lines, a friend told us recently (thanks, Larry) that we have the foresight to see solutions to problems our clients don’t even know they have yet. We’re helping clients deliver technical content on more and more platforms. IG is kicking off development of our first virtual reality (VR) project in early 2017. We could not be more excited about what’s to come in 2017 and we truly appreciate the confidence our clients have in us–that we will continue to help them address their communications challenges and meet their objectives. At the beginning of the year I made a commitment to do a better job of appreciating everything–family, friends, colleagues and our many clients here at IG. For in a very real way these are all part of my family. If you are reading this, I consider you to be part of our IG family and it is with the deepest sincerity that I wish you the very best and a happy and safe Thanksgiving!
