Networking event

The Tech Industry Gold Student/Employer Events are the perfect opportunity to meet with students, universities and other employers.

200 + students from all year groups come together twice a year in the North and South of England to meet potential employers, showcase their tech ideas at the student competitions, and be inspired by tech leaders through keynote talks and interactive skills sessions. This year's theme is based on the UN's 17 Sustainable Development Goals, where students will be given the challenge of how tech can help to meet the UN's ambition by 2030.

In addition to the skills sessions and competitions, we will be running our popular speed networking session to enable students to engage with employers. This is a great opportunity for you to talent spot and share your experiences. The event is not a recruitment fair and therefore does not require you to assemble large exhibition stands. However, you can bring with you on the day a small carriable pull up stand and some collateral.

And there's more...you can also take part in the following

Judge the tech student competition and give professional feedback to students.

FAQs

What can I bring to the event if I am taking part in the networking event?

You can bring a carriable pull up stand with you on the day. A table and two chairs will be provided. If you do not own a stand, then we can print your logo on a large piece of card, so that students can easily identify you.

Do I have to bring my printed ticket to the event?

No, but you must let the organisers know if you can no longer attend. Any additional colleagues who wish to attend must register individually.
