Tech Connect

Add to calendar:
The Tech Connect Conference will be taking place at The Catalyst on Thursday the 20th of March 2025

The conference will deliver a day of inspiring talks & opportunities to connect with like minded professionals within the Tech Industry.

There will be talks on topics such as web development, tech company culture, data, AI and many more besides and the conference will be hosted in the heart of Newcastle upon Tyne at The Catalyst close to St James's Park.


The talks will be broad ranging enough to be interesting and inspiring to anyone who works in Tech, but specific enough for those working in that particular area to have takeaways they can implement in their day to day role. 


A quiet room with fidget toys will be available for those who need a calm space, and we invite you to join our lunchtime wellbeing walk for a refreshing break.
