What a week at Manchester Tech Festival. It’s a real struggle to put into words how important events like this are for our industry and Greater Manchester. I consider myself extremely lucky and privileged to have helped play even a small part in such a wonderful event and I look forward to seeing what next year brings!

Had a lovely and interesting day at Manchester Tech Festival. Got to speak to some amazing companies about early careers. Makes me very excited to graduate in the next year and see what the world has to offer!

An amazing festival and I would urge everyone to attend at least 1 day!

There were insightful talks, a substantial turnout and ir was a pleasure guiding people to the right stage for various talks and discussions. Volunteering on the day has been a rewarding experience. I along with the rest of the volunteers and organisations at Manchester Tech Festival, can confidently day that the day was a success!
