Purple Frog Data consultants Nick and Lewis recently attended Breakfast Bytes, hosted by Bespoke Computing at the West Stand, AFC Telford.

The event brought together professionals from across technology and business functions to explore how people and technology work together in modern organisations. A particular highlight was the session delivered by Ishbel Lapper, whose insights sparked thoughtful discussion around risk, collaboration, and the human factors behind technology operations.

Reflecting on the morning, Nick commented:

“It was a genuinely worthwhile session. The discussion around how people and technology truly work together was particularly thought-provoking, especially the idea that fatigue and pressure often create more risk than the technology itself. I came away with practical insights I can apply straight away.”

Lewis added:

“It was really interesting to hear how HR views IT operations, and to reflect on how that relationship currently functions; and how it needs to evolve.”

Events like Breakfast Bytes provide valuable opportunities to connect perspectives across departments, reinforcing the importance of aligning people, process, and technology in today’s digital landscape.

Thank you for hosting a fantastic morning.
