Prototyping, Testing, Merging and Combining, Creative Coding
What do we research?
Staying up to date with technology means constant research and development to stay with the current as well as upcoming trends. In order to assure we’re ready for what you have to throw at us, ENTERACT has made R&D a defining component of what we do and how we spend our time.
How do we find time?
Research takes commitment that isn’t just going to a conference once a year or a subscription to a magazine, it’s a frame of mind and priority from the outset of everything we do.
