A decade after graduating, Brighton alumna Carlene Jackson has received recognition from Microsoft for the company she founded.

Carlene qualified with a masters degree in Digital Television Management and Production in 2005. She founded her tech company Cloud9 Insight in 2011 and has recently relocated the company to Brighton to take advantage of the city's emerging status as the tech capital of the UK.

Cloud9 Insight offers services to support the successful planning, implementation and adoption of Microsoft Cloud solutions including Microsoft Dynamics CRM (Customer Relationship Management) Online, Office 365, SharePoint and Lync.

Carlene Jackson
We are incredibly proud to have been selected to join the Microsoft President’s Club and the news has come at an exciting time in our growth. Moving the company to Brighton allows us to take advantage of the leading talent that comes with being located within the UK’s digital tech capital as well as being part of the unique culture created by this cluster of innovative businesses.

Carlene Jackson, founder of Cloud9 Insight

The Microsoft President’s Club achievement is a direct result of the company's outstanding dedication to customer satisfaction through the delivery of innovative business solutions. Microsoft has recognised Cloud9 Insight for its commitment to customers which is reflected in the business' recent success and growth. This prestigious group represents the top five per cent of Microsoft Dynamics partners worldwide, who demonstrate leadership in delivering outstanding Customer Relationship Management (CRM) projects.

Carlene strongly believes in supporting young people in business and is currently recruiting for six new members of staff as part of the company’s continued growth strategy.
