Last night I was at a BCS ELITE networking event, very kindly organised by Yva Thakurdas, with help from Mandy Bauer, and co-hosted by the indomitable Roger Ellis (in the Chairman, David Tidey's absence).
BCS ELITE are one of the BCS's Specialty Groups, a forum for IT Directors and CxOs.
Obviously the event was a good one, I had an enjoyable time, and in the words of Mr. Rodríguez: "Make new friends and keep the old. One is silver and the other's gold."
It reminded me that I hadn't posted the photo that Yva had sent me from the BCS ELITE Winter Gala, where Scott McNealy was presented with his Distinguished Fellowship of the BCS at the stunningly magnificent Goldsmiths Hall (on his Birthday I might add).
So here it is:
From left to right are: Rebecca Smith, Simon Culmer, Scott McNealy, Kim Jones, and Enzo Tolino.
Many thanks for the photo Yva, and again for setting up the event last night.
Perhaps if the BCS did less of this sort of thing and more about supporting *British* industry leaders and companies, I'd be more interested in re-joining.
