Listen "Taking on the Open Tech Calendar"
Episode Synopsis
Episode 41 of the Sheffield Digital Podcast is out in the wild and contains an announcement – that we’re taking on ownership of the Open Tech Calendar. This is a chance for you to hear Chris explain how this all came about and why we think Sheffield Digital can take the project forward. Since Sheffield Digital started, the Open Tech Calendar, which was created by James Baster of JMB Technologies, has been the glue that’s held our own events calendar together. It’s open source, open data and shall remain so as we look to build on the platform and encourage more and more people to use it. As I say, best thing to do is listen to the episode and hear the hows, whys and wherefores directly from Chris. After that, we discuss other exciting topics, including:the Sheffield Digital Quarterly Briefing publicationMel’s experience judging the Top Tech: Yorkshire competition the careers fair at University of SheffieldMel meeting the new Head of Digital at Barnsley College.Feel free to send feedback to [email protected] if you have any thoughts or suggestions.
