Girl Geeks


Earlier this week I attended a Girl Geek Dinner as part of the Leeds Digital Festival. I was a new comer to the event held at the Mint Hotel but it was an enjoyable evening (with great food). The 2 speakers - Kathryn Grace, Service Design at Everything Everywhere (Orange & T-Mobile) and Lizzie Sanderson, Web Services Manager, Leeds City Council - shared their knowledge of the digital industry, Lizzie was really funny describing the struggle between creative & IT, something most of us can relate with & Kathryn highlighted the bigger picture of the design world, describing the different touch points of any product / service.
