A Glimmer of Hope
Posted by Devin Poolman on 2 January 2009.
With our most recent announcement that we will be closing 8020 and JPG, we received an enormous amount of support from the community. Thank you for that — it means a lot to the team here and it shows that JPG is made up of wonderful people. Along with that support, we have also received some interest from qualified parties who may be interested in acquiring the company so that JPG could live on. We don’t want to get your hopes up unnecessarily, but there is nothing we would want more then for JPG to continue in some form, and we are working on that now. Stay tuned and let’s keep our collective fingers crossed.
If you or someone you know might be interested, you can reach us at contact@8020media.com.
