Held at the AECC, the En-ergise launch event was a great success with a full house and very positive feedback from attendees about the quality of the speakers, the audience, the event organisation and the food too! A ringing endorsement for En-ergise!
The Introduction was by Bill Cattanach of Department of Energy and Climate Change, the event was chaired by Dorothy Burke of En-ergise and we had a great line-up of speakers. (Please click on the speaker's name to download a summary pdf version of their presentation from the event)
The event was followed by a Drinks Reception hosted by En-ergise at which the buzz created by the En-ergise launch was evident!
This was the first of the En-ergise T-Shirt talks - an informal and interactive evening where those who have "been there, done that and got the T-shirt of experience" share their story and learning.
The Red Spider team of Chris Oliver, Andy Skinner and Gary Smith did us proud to a full house of 25 at Red Spider's purpose-built smart new premises at Westhill Business Park. Red Spider's growth is a real success story, building a truly international premium technology company from scratch in just 5 years. Their candid, open and fun presentation (not a Powerpoint slide in sight!) held the audience engaged and interacting until well into the evening!
Again a very successful En-ergise event with more positive feedback from attendees and everyone there looking forward to the next innovative event in the En-ergise calendar!

Stuart Young of Emerson shared with us his first hand experience of the power of this online networking tool.
It inspired us all to go off and update our profiles and invite lots of new people to our networks. The En-ergise Linked In Group is also undergoing a makeover!
A further in-depth workshop is planned soon for us to ask lots more questions of this Linked In maestro!
