This year we are raising money for Katherine House Hospice, our chosen charity for 2018, and we’ve been busy fundraising. July started with a team of four enthusiastic (but slightly tired) ‘CubanEighters’ embarking on a 10 mile walk around Banbury … at midnight! The event is run by Katherine House Hospice, and this is their […]
With recent reports in the press from recruiters highlighting low candidate availability and staff shortages in certain industries, workplaces are increasingly having to invest in alternative methods to recruit and retain their workforce. Research has shown that as businesses continue to embrace the digital age, traditional businesses must transform or else risk vanishing into an […]

The awards recognise those who are transforming the landscape and possibilities of B2B tech marketing, showcasing the best work, talent and results from across the industry. This is the first […]
The media (and its audience) love a demographic, and it’s really interesting to see how traditional media refers to millennials vs baby boomers. I am a millennial (just) and to be honest I am over reading about avocados and millennial pink (although, full disclosure, I do love both). There was a really interesting article in […]

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 […]

This year, we have decided among ourselves to partner with another local charity The Katherine House Hospice in Adderbury. The Hospice offers specialist palliative and respite […]
Anyone familiar with Absolutely Fabulous will be aware of the running joke that many public relations events are held in a bar and full of fluff – but last night’s PUBlic Relations Oxford event, which I attended, was a great example of how a set of fantastic guest speakers and a willing exchange of […]
Recently, the team embraced the great British Summer and went on a great walk into the deepest Cotswolds for our CubanEight Summer Saunter. 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 […]
