Testimonials
Hear from some of our past attendees, sponsors, and speakers
“I had such a great time at TechMids Conf, the event had it all: high energy, fantastic speakers from near and afar, the whole Brum Tech community together, loads of interesting chats in between talks, and a great after party too. We used it as an excuse to see people from work in real life, and took lots away from the talks that we now use at work. Can't wait for the next one!”

“Another fantastic event, thank you so much to the organisers, it’s wonderful to have such an inclusive conference in Birmingham. Atmosphere was great and I really enjoyed both days”
“I really enjoyed all of presentations by on day one especially by David Flanagan and Leon Adato. It was also great to network with fellow coders. There were a lot of interesting products advertised by sponsors. Obviously food and beverages were delicious.”
“I enjoyed it overall, a lot of good talks and interesting attendees. Thanks for all the hard work!”
“Great to have such variety in sessions, socials and lunch was very good. The stickers to encourage communication were fab too! Very pronoun and gender inclusive, which is great to see.”
“Overall for me it was a 10 out of 10 both days.”
“TechMids - WOW! I've attended and volunteered at the last two conferences that the TechMids team have put together and I've seen and heard, nothing but positive things. On the day the events run smoothly, from checking-in to knowing who's on where, it's seamless start to finish. The speaker quality and format is also amazing, by varying the types of talks & sessions it keeps everyone engaged and there's always something for everyone. Being able to run conferences of this magnitude and with so many free or low cost tickets is just brilliant to see. I can't wait for the next one!”

“A really great conference! All of the speakers were really engaging and interesting and there was plenty of time allocated to networking in what was a very friendly and inclusive atmosphere. Loved the dynamic session highlighting on the website too, it helped me keep track of the schedule throughout the day.”
