Business brothers

Published 26 July 2012

Two brothers who started a business to finance their final year at university have graduated with flying colours - and seen their business take off.

Danny and Matt Daley, both awarded BA(Hons) Digital Media from the university on 23 July, launched a digital marketing agency, Fruitful Digital, which, according to the brothers, is "making money and growing".

They put much of their success down to the university course. Matt, 23, said: "It's a really good course and if we hadn't taken it then I don't think we'd be where we are today – we'd thoroughly recommend it."

Danny, 25, also won the Wired Sussex sponsored prize for the best project from a final year student. He said: "I launched the company a year ago to finance our last year's studies. We build websites for businesses, offer support – and it's really doing well. We intend now to build on that success."
