Join us for the Sheffield Digital AGM 

A chance to celebrate success, share information and find out what’s happening in the city’s tech landscape.

We’re thrilled to invite you to the Sheffield Digital Annual General Meetup (AGM) on Wednesday 5 February 2025. Our AGM is not just a meeting—it’s a chance to connect, celebrate, and reflect on the collective achievements of Sheffield’s vibrant digital community. And of course, it is our opportunity to say thank you to our members, partners and sponsors for your support, enthusiasm and collaboration over the past year.
