Moving Day

Moving day, er, week, here at Livewire.

New offices located at 2606 NW 6th Street are being filled in with all of our useful junk. Very exciting to be in a premium location with large signage and great new neighbors. Livewire has teamed up with Gnosys Networks to offer a wider range of services for both of our companies. Our swanky new office is definitely a work in progress be it is fun and we have some big things planned for the property.

New location means new projects and we’ve had a lot recently. Several new websites in the works for great Gainesville area businesses. A few startups, a few oldies but goodies – old friends have come back to us and we’ve made some new ones so far this year. 2015 is shaping up to be a great year for us and for those doing business with us.

Come by and see us anytime.
