Moss House was lively with regional industry leaders across tech recently as TechWM hosted their summer tech social in University College Birmingham’s award-winning atrium. 

In partnership with the Institute of Directors (IoD) Birmingham, the event saw entrepreneurs, enthusiasts and influential figures from across the West Midlands tech industry connect and network in a vibrant environment.

Andy Wilkinson, Chair of IoD Birmingham said: “Simply an amazing event. To gather over 250 people from the TechWM community and further afield at University College Birmingham with partners including Agilyx Group and Institute of Directors is brilliant. The whole evening was one of celebration with the chance to network and enjoy the cracking location. Feedback has been superb with numerous key connections made. Look out for the next one and see you at Tech Week!”

José Lopes, Pro Vice-Chancellor (External Affairs), said of the summer social: “I was delighted to welcome the West Midlands tech community to the University College Birmingham campus for a fantastic networking event.

“The University prides itself on expanding opportunities for our students, by maintaining strong links with employers in key growth sectors and developing courses that directly address local skills needs to drive prosperity and jobs. We look forward to continuing to work alongside TechWM, and our partner the University of Warwick, in supporting Birmingham Tech Week later this year.”

The University of Warwick and University College Birmingham are set to curate yet more engaging events in the months to come.
