Jethro Macey who graduated from BA(Hons) 3D Design has been ranked as the top emerging Design talent in the Hospital Club 100, an annual search for the key emerging and established figures within ten sectors of the British creative and media industries.

The list is voted on by thousands of people working in the creative industries and is organised by The Hospital Club 100 in association with The Independent Newspaper.  The emphasis is on current contribution, importance and influence, not just the size of someone's celebrity status, profile, bank balance, titles or past reputation.

The ten categories include Advertising-Marketing; Art; Design; Digital; Film; Fashion; Music; Performance; Publishing & Writing and Television.  Each category includes five names emerging in the sector and five established names that have been influential over the past year.

Jethro runs an award- winning design practice, which has compiled an impressive portfolio of products and clients since its launch in 2007.  Macey's accolades include winning an Elle Decoration British Design Award; collaboration with Bruges Museum and being selected as a Designer in Residence at The Design Museum, London.  Alongside his design practice, Macey works on a diverse spectrum of exciting ventures including installations at festivals, teaching at universities and will be opening a bar in Broadway Market, London in 2011.

Michael Grandage artistic director of the Donmar Warehouse, London and Visiting Professor to University College Falmouth was also listed as one of five established names within the Performance sector.

University College Falmouth is the only independent Higher Education institution in Cornwall with the powers to award degrees in its own name.  It has two campuses in Cornwall - at Woodlane in Falmouth and Tremough in Penryn (which it owns, and jointly manages with the University of Exeter) - and a third campus at Totnes in Devon, following its merger with Dartington College of Arts in 2008.

This merger created a new institution focusing on the expansion of Falmouth's expertise in Art, Design and Media and Dartington's expertise in Choreography, Music, Theatre, Art and Writing.  The Devon-based courses will relocate to a new, high-specification Performance Centre at Tremough in 2010, paving the way for a new specialist Arts University in Cornwall by 2013/2014 that will be unique to the South West.

The University College is a founding partner in the Combined Universities in Cornwall (CUC), a unique initiative to promote regional economic regeneration through Higher Education, funded mainly by the European Union (Objective One and Convergence), the South West Regional Development Agency, and the Higher Education Funding Council for England, with support from Cornwall Council.
