Tecside Group: Networking Event
On Thursday 6 February 2020, Tecside Group Technical & Professional held its first event of the year for its Perth based corporate clients.
Held at the Royal Hotel Perth, Tecside Group invited guest Speakers Joe Williams (The Enemy Within – Suicide Prevention & Mental Health Wellness) and Gail Milne (WISE Professional Network) to provide some insights into Social Inclusion from a Cultural and Diversity perspective for its Corporate Clients.
It was very gratifying to see such a strong turnout for the event, and the engagement with the key themes and messages of the event. We look forward to partnering with our Clients to further ensure a strong future for equitable employment opportunities.
