The Hertfordshire Business Independent (HBI) June Networking Event - Update
Following on from this post last month:

about the above event that I was the speaker for, I just wanted to give you an update on the evening.
As featured in this month’s copy of the magazine, the event went very well and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. It was well organised and the Quality Hotel in Hatfield was an excellent venue. My talk was described by the magazine as ‘lively’ - which isn’t bad for any talk relating to IT, as it can sometimes be a boring subject!
There were 60 business people present in the end, so I decided to structure my talk around the advisory article I wrote earlier in the year about the lessons to be learned from the issues at Terminal 5. I covered 10 key areas to be careful of when implementing any substantial business change, especially those connected with technology.
Thanks to the team at HBI for asking me to speak at the event and to all the people that contacted me and came along: Ryan Tobias from Business For Breakfast, Ryan Yuill and Mandy Andrews from Applied IT Solutions, Victoria Cox from Thomas Cox and Co, and Mike Waddell from Adsidia. Also, I’m pleased to say that Ryan Tobias and Mike Waddell both won prizes in the raffle!
I highly recommend these networking events – they are informal, friendly and productive. The next event is on 22nd September at the Cheshunt Marriott in Broxbourne.

Well done - the event sounds like it went well and that guests got a lot out of attending it.
