Hello you lovely humans you!!!

We are SO EXCITED to announce our first event of the year!!

Join us for an entertaining and informative evening of positivity!

2022 has been another hard year, in lots of different ways. The purpose of this event is for members of the tech community to share uplifting, positive and actionable tips for developing 'Positive Resilience'. We've deliberately picked a wide range of speakers who all have different stories - inspirational, motivational and practical in their own unique ways. We know that you will come away from this event feeling inspired, excited, and positive for the year to come!

We've got some extra bits and bobs that we're going to be trialling to make our event stand out and be a bit different to the norm! All of which is designed to make you laugh, smile, or feel happy :D

We are moving into 2023 with positivity, love, light, gratitude and healing and we'd love to share our awesome vibes with you!

HUGE THANK YOU to the awesome folks at [DiSH](https://labs.uk.barclays/dish/) for hosting us in their brand new space, and a very special thank you to [Just IT](https://www.justit.co.uk/) for sponsoring the food and drinks and making this event possible!

We'll be hearing from:

[Leon Dixon](https://www.linkedin.com/in/leon-dixon-8b6487194/) \- Software Engineer at Ignite Systems

[Wayne Bennett](https://www.linkedin.com/in/wayne-bennett-frsa-certrp-454b6b8/) \- Director at Made4Tech Global

[Heather Watson](https://www.linkedin.com/in/javascriptandfrontendspecialist/) \- Lead Consultant at Oscar Tech

And then we will be opening up the floor for 99 second talks for anyone who'd like to share something about a passion project, share their resilience story, or something similar!

Please note: We appreciate times are hard for everyone, but if you can we politely ask that if you are able to could you please bring a donation for our food bank partners. We are asking for baby food, nappies, infant formula, hygiene wipes, tampons, sanitary pads, halal food and socks. If your religion prevents you from touching or purchasing any of the previous items you are welcome to bring packaged bars of soap. We are desperate for donations and your contribution makes a very real difference to the service users that vitally require these items.

Food and drinks will be provided, please email any dietary requirements to [amy@manchestertechfestival.co.uk](mailto:amy@manchestertechfestival.co.uk)
