SDP 37: Katie Taylor on exciting times and opportunities at Kollider Projects

Sheffield Digital Podcast

We’re back after a brief summer hiatus with a brand new episode of the Sheffield Digital Podcast. We were delighted to have Katie Taylor, Sales and Marketing Lead at Kollider Projects, join us to share all sorts of exciting updates on the progress being made at Castle House.

She gave us a fantastic overview of what’s happening on each floor of the building, from Kommune down at the bottom to the top-floor- tech incubator that’s now full of interesting people and companies. Katie also told us about Kurious Arts, a new arts incubator in development that will focus on all things writing, photography, film and the like.

Perhaps most importantly, there are still many opportunities for Sheffield’s digital folk to get involved with what’s going on at Kollider. That starts with a series of upcoming events that we heartily recommend you check out and consider going to.

In the second half of the show, Mel and Chris do their usual thing of talking through some of the significant happenings and comings up in the city, including:

• the Sheffield Digital AGM and why it’s a members event
• the next Sheffield Digital Showcase event
• Sheffield City Council’s new speciality support team.

Okay doke. Off you pop to fetch your headphones and listen up to episode 37 of the Sheffield Digital Podcast.
