First techmesh event a great success

We held our first techmesh event last night in The Loft in Leeds and were delighted with number that attended – more and 100 of you.
Food, fizz and jazz were excellent. As were the speakers - Marco Potesta, director of The NetStart a former director of IT reseller Insight and a founding director of Yorkshire’s most successful internet service provider, PlusNet and Conrad Poulson, Head of Start-up Business Development at mobile telecoms group Orange.
You can find the full story here. Videos of the speakers will be available shortly.
However, we would love to know what you would want from a future techmesh event. We are planning to run them around the region. In which towns or cities would you like an event? What sort of speakers would you like to hear? Any special topics? Would you prefer an OpenCoffee/GeekUp/BarCamp event or something more formal?
Leave a comment and let us know. Meanwhile here are some pictures from last night.
