Techmesh moves to the Chamber
Techmesh is now part of Leeds, York & North Yorkshire Chamber of Commerce.
Techmesh was originally set up and launched by Connect Yorkshire in 2010, deriving from Yorkshire Forward's initiative to set up an IT & Telecoms B2B member network for the Yorkshire and Humber region.
Helen and Marian moved in to the Chamber offices earlier this month and are settling in nicely, although like any new home, boxes are still un-packed!
