FREE AUTUMN NETWORKING EVENING
AT THE SKY LOUNGE, LEEDS!

Three years after we held our last, very successful, pre-pandemic networking evening, we were back once again at the Sky Lounge in Leeds. It was well attended, as our Leeds events always seem to be, with a good crowd all catching up with one another in lively discussions that went on from early evening until very late.

Having confirmed our expectation that there is still a demand out there for our type of relaxed, informal, friendly networking events, we can now confidently start planning to hold more evenings in 2023. Watch out for news on this early in the new year.

We are indebted to our sponsors: comforte, IR and Iliad, whose support enabled us to ensure the evening was free for anyone who wished to join us. There were quite a few first-timers and people travelling to Leeds from as far afield as Belfast, Fyfe and Brighton, which demonstrates the appeal of PKF events.

At comforte, in a nutshell, we identify, locate and protect our customer’s confidential, or Personally Identifiable (PII) data from external attacks and hacking, whilst minimising internal mis-use or fraud by so-called ‘Insider attacks’. In addition, we allow our customers to unlock the full value of the data that they hold, facilitating data analytics etc. down to granular level without compromising security.

We have over 500 customers worldwide, including Government Departments, commercial organisations, banks, retailers, insurance companies and the like, but increasingly we protect smaller and smaller companies as more organisations seek to take data protection seriously.
