Coming out the other side of the Easter break has been a busy time in the CubanEight office, culminating this week with big news for one of our clients, Chargifi, and kicking off a campaign with our newest client GameOn Technology. Chargifi is a British tech company, who is leading the march in the wireless […]
With seemingly every Tom, Dick and Harry (or should that be Harriet?) jumping on the media bandwagon for this year’s International Women’s Day, there were some particularly interesting reads in the FT’s Women in Technology supplement on ways to tackle the gender gap in the technology sector. After-school coding clubs, cyber security competitions and video […]
Has it really been two months since I joined the CubanEight team? These past few weeks have been fast-paced and interesting with no working day the same. I joined CubanEight from a fashion industry PR and marketing management role. With my experience within the fashion industry spanning over a decade I was looking to make […]

The Weather Gods were kind and we had a beautiful morning for our circular walk, starting and ending in Milton-Under-Wychwood. We managed to create a number of great photo opportunities (as you […]
It’s the end of my first month here at CubanEight, and what with immersing myself in the worlds of video marketing personalisation, intelligent software and sustainable alternatives to global energy consumption, the time has really flown by. I joined the team from a London PR agency and film industry background. Having relocated to Bicester in […]
In my last blog, I looked at what everyday technologies can be installed to make a smart home. Those of you that read the post will know I was expecting to take delivery of an electric car, a Nissan Leaf, in March. For me, this is the first time I have ventured into buying a […]
On Saturday, we – a team of six eager ‘CubanEighters’ – descended on the Great Tew Estate, in deepest Oxfordshire, ready to start Rough Runner! This year we decided to enter to raise money to support Oxford Children’s Hospital’s 10th Anniversary Appeal, our chosen charity for 2017, so we were all in great spirits. Resplendent […]
As part of the CubanEight CSR programme for 2017, we have nominated Oxford Children’s Hospital as our charity of the year. It was a team decision to choose this charity, as it is local and some of us have had personal experiences benefiting from the specialised care it offers. This year the hospital is celebrating its […]
