Assuming you were already born, do you remember what you were doing 25 years ago?
1990 was an eventful year – including Mekon being founded by Julian and Richard Murfitt. Since then the Mekon team has been evolving and diversifying to cover a variety of content-related technologies and applications.
Mekon started off our 25 year celebrations by taking a break and by ordering an Action Cream Tea from Action Medical Research for the office. Action Cream Teas deliver a great afternoon treat in a box to help to raise funds for supporting medical research for sick children.
