Technology Leadership Social v2.0
Version Two. Built Better.
The Tech Leadership Social:
Presented by Silicon Yorkshire
Real Conversations. Real Community. Strictly no sales.
Join us for our second evening of drinks, insight, and connection with Yorkshire’s most forward-thinking technology leaders.
Whether you’re defining cloud strategy, scaling systems, or just want to meet peers in a relaxed and sales-free environment – this is your room.
What to expect:
A guest speaker giving real-world insight
Thoughtful networking (absolutely no sales)
Drinks, conversation, and real value in every chat
A community growing across Yorkshire
This isn’t another generic meet-up.
It’s technology leadership focused and curated for people who build with intent, and backed by Silicon Yorkshire – the region’s fastest-growing tech community.
Please note: attendance criteria apply.
If you’re not in a tech role, please do not register.
We love you very much, but sometimes we want a curated audience.
