Nottingham-based digital agency, HeX Productions, has secured a contract with the worldwide computer software giant Canonical.

HeX Productions is a cutting-edge, accessibility-focused digital agency who are shaping the way that people access online services on a global scale. 

The team will soon be eagerly setting to work in assisting the global company Canonical with its accessibility needs for ubuntu.com and surrounding web services. Canonical publishes Ubuntu, provides commercial services and solutions, and works with hardware manufacturers, software vendors and public clouds.

Together with a community of 200,000, Canonical publishes, provides commercial services, and creates solutions for the Open Source platform, Ubuntu. An operating system that runs from small, connected devices up to the world’s biggest mainframes.

HeX Creative Director, James Hall, said “We are all really excited to continue to work with the team at Canonical. Following a really enjoyable training session, you can see the team’s eagerness and desire to make their products accessible. We are delighted to continue the accessibility journey together.”
