🚨 The Big Tech Debate Returns – 18th September! 🚨

Brought to you by **Counter** & **MRJ Recruitment** – the team behind Manchester’s most thought-provoking tech event – The Big Tech Debate is back this September for another night of bold opinions, challenging perspectives, and unfiltered conversation.

📅 18th September
⏰ 5:30PM – 8PM
📍 Bloc, Manchester

We’re coming in hot with our main motion of the night:

💥 *“Vibe coding is democratising software but lowering engineering standards”*

And here’s the kicker – both sides are represented by **Fuzzy Labs** co-founders:

* **FOR:** Tom Stockton – CEO & Co-Founder, bringing bold takes and big energy.
* **AGAINST:** Matt Squire – CTO & Co-Founder, ready to dismantle the motion (all in good fun).

We’ve tackled everything from legacy vs modernisation to the real motivations behind AI adoption, and this year promises even more sparks.

🍕 Pizza, drinks, and networking always included.
🎟️ Spaces are limited – secure your spot now.

Come for the debate, stay for the conversation.
