What People are saying
Portsmouth Tech and Cultural Hub has been a transformative experience that bridged my transition from a health background into the world of technology and data. The opportunity to connect with other professionals who, like myself, transitioned from the health sector into tech was incredibly inspiring and broadened my perspective on how data and technology can revolutionize healthcare and other industries. This exposure not only deepened my appreciation for interdisciplinary innovation but also motivated me to pursue greater impact through data analytics and technology-driven solutions.
I met Gabriel, the founder and ceo of Portsmouth tech and cultural hub, after he contacted me on LinkedIn. He asked me if I would be interested in running a session on Digital Saftey with him. I, of course, took him up on this offer. Thanks to Gabriel giving me that opportunity, I have gone on to find a new passion in public speaking and raising cyber awareness.
Being part of Portsmouth Tech and Cultural Hub twice as Head of Media gave me incredible hands-on experience leading production and streaming teams, while connecting me with inspiring role models like Toyyib Adewale Adelodun. The insights and advice I gained from panelists especially at this year’s event exploring how AI can be used safely and within communities and modern businesses expanded my knowledge and inspired me to pursue Computer Science at university.
The experience of being one of the panellists at Portsmouth Tech and Cultural Hub International Women’s Day Panel allowed me to connect with powerful and interesting women in my field, opening important networking channels for my future career. It also allowed me to work on my public speaking and hopefully inspire young people looking at going into the field of cyber.
