A networking and interactive session to inspire deeper connections to the diversity of Leeds.
Leeds is a thriving, culturally rich and diverse city, with lots of potential talent waiting to be tapped into. Yet despite vacancies being at a record high, employers are still struggling to recruit high quality candidates and build diversity within their teams.
In this interactive session, with refreshments and nibbles, Aire Logic and Generation will discuss how nurturing local talent will grow your business in an economical and sustainable way – all while helping you to make a city-wide social impact by connecting diverse communities to Leeds’ fast growing tech sector.
What to expect to get out of the event:
Uncover inspiring new ways to build a great organisational culture, widen access to tech jobs, close the digital divide, and boost employment and skills across Leeds. Connect to the right people and replicate the diversity of Leeds within your own organisation.
Join us and like-minded organisations to network, share experiences of ‘going local’ to meet skills demand, and hear from Generation bootcamp graduates about their amazing experiences to date.
If you are a start-up looking to grow, you’re new to Leeds and looking to connect more to our city, or simply want to build more diversity into your teams, this session is for you.
