We’re just weeks away fromNorDevCon 2015and the Early Bird tickets are available until the 13th February at £95 + fees – less than half the standard ticket price!

This year, not only will the conference be a gathering of some of the brightest minds from the tech community, but over 100 business representatives from businesses in and around the county.

With some business based sessions and the opportunity to network with investors, designers and everything in between, the conference is the perfect chance to mingle with like minded folk and attend interactive sessions demonstrating how technological advances can add efficiency and value to a company’s business model.

Taking place at The King’s Centre in Norwich city centre, NorDevCon is considered so important amongst the region’s business community that it was recently featured in the EDP, with Business Editor Ben Woods exploring how the conference is calling on East Anglian businesses to back Norwich’s technology sector. The articles headline read “Businesses and software companies must forge closer ties to help the region’s technology sector reach its full potential.”

The event is designed to showcase the important role tech firms can play within the East Anglian economy and event host, Naked Element’s Paul Grenyer, explains “the event will boost the profile of Norwich’s technology sector and help bring in the talented workers it needs for growth. There are companies turning up to technology community groups looking for developers, but are struggling to find them.”

Launched in 2016 by Mesothelioma UK Ambassador, Brian Wallis, Anglia Asbestos Disease Support Group is for patients in Norfolk, Suffolk and Essex with asbestos related diseases, and for those that care for them. Ashtons Legal is proud to sponsor the Norfolk and Suffolk support meetings.

The sessions are a chance to meet others who understand what you are going through, and to learn more about your condition and the help that is out there. Through these sessions, the group hopes that attendees will feel less isolated by their illness, and by developing friendships with other patients and carers, a sense of community will be created that offers experiential advice and support.

Guest speakers will give advice on treatments, trials, diets, alternative therapies, financial compensation and various other things about the conditions the patient may face on their journey.

September 2019 meeting – Our guest speaker will be a representative from the Starthrowers.

This event is held at the Postwick Village & Sports Hall in Norwich and is free of charge to attend with refreshments provided.

Meetings are also held in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk and Brentwood, Essex. Up to date information about the group is announced on the Anglia Asbestos Disease Support Group Twitter and Facebook pages.
