techmesh Social Media - Friend or Foe event 1st February 2012 "The presentations were great last night especially Chris Allen’s – definitely worthwhile coming along so thank you".
"If I could sum up techmesh in one word it would be 'community'. I attend the events to support the sector and to network. What I like about the events is that they're about making introductions rather than the hard sell. They allow like minded people with a similar focus to be in one place to talk about technology, the ups and downs, the good and the bad. It creates a foundation to build on through networking, relationship building, referrals and partnerships".
"The good thing about techmesh and the reason it exists, is that it brings the industry together. Whilst some may see their peers as the competition, we should work together, collaborate and aim for bigger projects. techmesh is a forum that connects people, allows us to start those conversations, make bonds that ultimately lead to working partnerships".

techmesh EXPO 2011 13th October 2011 - "Thank you for the excellent work you put into this event – at a time when I realise there were other things going on that must have been a distraction. I can honestly tell you that it was 100% effective for us at Commsprovider and our investment in a new sparkling stand – hope you noticed it! – made a great impact. Well done you deserve great credit as I know this was something you put heart and soul into. We are quoting for 6 major contracts we would not have found and meeting the clients in this environment makes the business process much easier – in a more relaxed fashion.
What I think Techmesh represents is the amazing quality of expertise and resource businesses in Yorkshire can tap into. In a challenging climate, it is essential that the business community looks hard at what good ICT strategy can delivery to your business – not just in feature rich efficiencies, but also the economies that can be achieved.
We had 40 top quality providers in that exhibition which is clear evidence that you don’t need to travel far to get a great partnership. There is no compromise to be made by choosing a local supplier, indeed I would say quite the opposite”.

techmesh Hull 11th May 2011 - "Thank you, a really well attended and run event"
techmesh silver sponsor, Owen Dukes Propalms Ltd
"I enjoyed the Hull event. It was particularly good for networking with other suppliers and I came away with three / four different avenues to pursue"
techmesh member, Mike Turner Belgravium
"I found the networking excellent at the recent TechTalk event. We should have joined techmesh months ago!"
“I’ve always found the people behind techmesh to be genuinely interested and keen to support Yorkshire based IT and Telecom Companies, like mine. And they’re all about the business…
I enjoy every event because they have some great guest speakers and they’ve created a fantastic, dynamic and relaxed networking environment. When we meet, we share and discuss opportunities, helping each other where possible, and exchanging opinions on technology and developments within the Sector.
I’ve probably eaten my way through enough chicken on a stick to cover the membership already! Add to that, the fact that I’ve taken advantage of the associate relationships which have been created with a variety of Professional Services organisations, as a membership benefit and I’d say that I’ve more than had my money’s worth.”
