Cloud computing and automation will form the focus of the third edition of Talking Tech.

The popular IT event, organised by Custodian Data Centre and the Kent Invicta Chamber of Commerce, will take place at the Maidstone Studios on Thursday, September 27.

Speakers and panels will once again form the focus of the event which has previously tackled cyber security, GDPR and jobs in IT.

Drew Morley, part of the commercial team at Custodian Data Centres, said: “The fact we are back for a third event since October 2017 really shows the demand for an IT forum in Kent.

“Our goal was to create sessions that allowed IT professionals an environment to meet their peers, share information and learn from the industry's best speakers. With more than 80 attending in the first two events, we feel we have achieved this in providing Kent’s tech community a platform to share their ideas and experiences.”

Travel firm Holiday Extras will compère the event, which is free to attend.

The session starts at 8.30am and finishes at noon, with free breakfast and refreshments provided throughout.
