What is SB TechEx?
SB TechEx is a MeetUp community for developers, UX designers, data experts, security professionals, innovators, forward-thinkers, and anyone interested in how traditional industries such as insurance are adapting rapidly to new technologies.
The SB TechEx MeetUp group is hosted by us at Simply Business - an online business insurance broker for small businesses that has been pioneering technological change in the insurance sector for more than a decade. Find out more about what we do in Tech at Simply Business.
Why attend an SB TechEx event?
With over 62,000 tech events happening in Europe alone, it can be difficult to know which to choose. At Simply Business, our vision for SB TechEx was to create something better, to drive innovation in technology to support the success of small businesses, to enable our people to thrive and have a positive impact on the industry.
Perhaps one of the most exciting aspects of attending a Simply Business technology event is to sync with like-minded technologists, find out and discuss trending technology, be inspired and make new friends.
What happens at an SB TechEx event?
At our MeetUps and events, you’ll hear from the experts, including Simply Business’s Chief Technology Officers and our tech leaders. There'll be presentations on a variety of topics by engineers, data analysts, product specialists and testers. They’ll talk about the technology platforms we use, our projects and some of the challenges our product teams face, including solutions we've come up with at Simply Business.
Our aims at SB TechEx are to:
- Build a supportive and inclusive network for those working in technology.
- Demonstrate a route into tech and the potential for future career identities.
- Showcase the business’s technology and encourage open discussions.
- Establish an affiliated Technical Excellence group that can, in future, work with various networks to build a stronger community.
SB TechEx regularly teams up with other technology MeetUp groups in London, including Time to React, Scala in the City, Rails Girls, Codebar, CTO's of London, Ruby Hacknight, London Codedojo, Inspiring Women in Data Science and Intertech.
