Bristol BranchWelcome to the Bristol branch of the BCS
We have put together a program of events that we hope you will find interesting. You can help to publicise the meetings to everyone at your place of work by displaying one of our posters, or including the details of our meetings on your Intranet.
We always welcome non-members to our meetings, so please bring along your friends and work mates, perhaps they will join.
We are always looking for suggestions or ideas for talks. If there is a subject which you think would be of interest to the members we are always keen for your feedback. If you are working on an interesting project, or you know of someone who is, and would be willing to give a short talk about it we would be very interested to hear from you.
These meetings provide excellent networking opportunities and, if you arrive early, you can take advantage of the buffet whilst networking. The meetings are helpful also in regard to Continuing Professional Development (CPD).
Tech Startup School
We would like to inform you about a new direction of events that BCS is organising in conjunction with Bristol Enterprise Network (BEN).
This unique School aims to help aspiring and early-stage tech entrepreneurs start or grow their own tech businesses.
In particular:
- the 6 core events will help you develop your business idea into a viable outline business plan,
- while the 5 skills workshops will give you a range of personal skills that are particularly important for early-stage tech entrepreneurs
At each event we will signpost relevant resources and information that you can access to learn more and get further help on that event’s topic.
You will get the greatest help in developing your business idea into a plan if you attend all, or most, of the 6 core events. However you are free to choose to attend whichever events you feel will benefit you most.
Expected pricing is:
- BCS Members: £12.50 inc. VAT for each event (or £50 for all 6 core events)
- Non Members: £25 (or £100 for all 6 core events)
Full details on the topics being covered and planned dates can be seen in the attached flyer. Booking details will be available soon. In the mean time you can register your interest
We now have a Facebook group
We realise that our members interact in different ways, and we want to help facilitate this. That is why we created the Linkedin Group for branch members. But there are many members that are not part of that and don't want to be. So we have also created a facebook group. We hope this will be of use to members.
