Hamillroad has moved to swishy new offices in the centre of Cambridge.

The pre-press software specialist is the developer of digitally modulated screening technology for litho and flexo printing with its Auraia DMS and Bellissima DMS products, along with soft proofing tools and ‘Lightning’ plug-ins for Harlequin Rips. 

The firm described the new location, near to the River Cam, as “vibrant” and an important factor in attracting talent from the ‘Silicon Fen’ area. 

CEO Andy Cave said the new space would allow the sort of collaboration and creativity that is difficult when working from home. 

"We've invested in a location that is appealing to highly-skilled and talented people and has the space to accommodate our planned growth in staff numbers,” he explained. 

“Like many businesses, we have spent the best part of the past two years working from home, and in that time, we've taken on new hires. While we've managed online, getting back to an office environment has allowed us to interact better than possible over Zoom or Teams. This is important as we take on additional team members to share knowledge and ideas effectively.”

The new office also has a “state-of-the-art Analysis room” (pictured above) for the support and development teams, where they have access to “the latest technology to assist customers in addressing the most complex print challenges”.
