Cracking the Code: Can creatives Thrive in Tech without a Tech Background
About this Event

In this workshop we will challenge the misconception that careers in the tech industry are solely for those with a technical background, by highlighting the importance of roles that value creativity, strategic thinking, and innovative insights as much, if not more, than technical skills.

We will discuss how individuals from non-technical backgrounds have carved successful careers in the tech sector, inspiring both the younger generation and individuals considering a significant change mid-life to see the tech industry as a viable and exciting path.

We will discuss opportunities that the tech industry holds for individuals at different stages of their careers.

We will stress the importance of adaptability, the willingness to engage in continuous learning, and the ability to integrate skills from various disciplines as key factors that tech companies value in prospective employees.

We will delve deep into the attributes and skills that tech companies truly prioritise when looking for the ideal employee.

This will not only include technical competencies but will also encompass critical soft skills like problem-solving abilities, the capacity for teamwork, and a growth mindset.

This segment will feature a panel of industry insiders who will share their experiences on the evolving landscape in the tech industry, providing attendees with a comprehensive understanding of how to navigate their careers
