Our History

After spending 15 years in the Aeronautical Engineering industry encompassing all aspects of aircraft engineering from airframes structures - electronics - navigation - radio as so on I commenced an electronics engineering company in 1990, we specialised in designing and servicing hardware for the IT industry rapidly realising there was a market for communication.

Our name was formed out of a desire to connect media and advertising - a vision we continue to share today. In the year 2000, the web, and all that it represented, sparked a great number of many online start-up ideas. We branched out into two diverse fields. Engineering and Electronic media.
During this stage we recieved took out several patents for IT development, lifting and handling equipment and occupational health and safety equipment.

Grant Dixon (Founder,  L.A.M.E.) decided to apply the knowledge he gained in his earlier business design and engineering roles and launch a web design and web development company – a company that would offer online strategy and technical solutions to traditional offline businesses responding to a changing consumer landscape.
