Open Tech Calendar

We’re delighted to announce the return of this special Senior Leaders Dinner on 22nd May at The Sheffield College’s Silver Plate restaurant.

Not only will our three course meal be prepared and served by talented catering and hospitality students at the College, we will be joined for dinner by T-Level students in digital subjects, who want to meet face to face with the city’s tech leaders.

This is a fantastic opportunity to meet and inspire your future workforce, to share your stories and experience and to guide and support students to fantastic careers in Sheffield's tech ecosystem.

If you were lucky enough to get a ticket for last year you will know what a fantastic evening we had. The students were outstanding, the conversations rich and productive and the meal delicious. Attendees commented on how good it felt to give back and how inspired they were meeting the next tech generation.

This Senior Leaders Dinner is all about raising aspirations, giving young people direction into tech, and potentially making a big difference to their lives - we hope you can join us for this important event.
