IT & Telecoms EXPO 2011 finally hits the region

After months of talking, planning and tweeting, the region's biggest technology exhibition, EXPO 2011 finally arrived.

With over 450 visitors the day was a great success and we are delighted! Despite Leeds being gridlocked at the start of the day which delayed some seminar attendees, we managed to pull it back. All our guest speakers did a sterling job and their contribution to the day made it extra special. The Yorkshire Post's Greg Wright paid us a visit in the afternoon and was very impressed with the exhibition and what techmesh is doing for the region and for the sector. Particularly with the Chamber. Greg joined us for the techpanel and listened in on the debate over IT talent. Read his article in the Yorkshire Post today, click here.

The Interactive Zone was amazing and the Seminar Room looked very smart indeed. Thanks to all our exhibitors, our SME Surgery and techmesh helpers. Thanks to JNM, Alphasound and the Royal Armouries staff for all their help.

On to 2012 and bigger and better things for techmesh, keep you all posted!
