The National Cyber Awards

🚨 LOST: 60 Cyber Robots! 🚨 Over the past 6 years, we’ve somehow *misplaced* 60 (yes, SIXTY) Cyber Robots. It seems our "state-of-the-art" security couldn't stop them from wandering off on their own (or with our guests!)…🤖💨 Have you seen one of our rogue robots lurking around in your place of work? 🤔 If you spot a Cyber Robot casually sipping coffee or hiding in your office, please send us a photo of its whereabouts 📸 P.S. We’re getting tracking chips next year! 😂 #LostAndFound #CyberRobotOnTheLoose #CyberAwards24 #RobotRescue

A perfect start to the week with a trip to Cheltenham to see Debi McCormack from The Cyber Scheme! We had a fantastic conversation talking all things 2025 for The National Cyber Awards 🏆 Exciting things are on the horizon for Future Tech Events, and I’m thrilled about the partnerships we already have locked in with key industry bodies that will support and elevate this event to new heights for year 7 of the Awards!

Sophie Powell and I have had an incredible couple of weeks recently! We were honoured to attend The National Cyber Awards as a finalist in the Cyber Diversity Category! 🎉It was an incredible evening with some amazing people, as a bonus, we got to cheer on some incredible Cyber Students, including Elise Ghent and Joe Wells. It was a delighted to watch Rob Black take home the well deserved Cyber Citizen of the year award. Congratulations to all nominees and winners from the night! Last weekend we took a trip to Liverpool to attend The National Diversity Awards 😱 We were grateful to be shortlisted for the Community Organisation Award for Gender. The award ceremony was hosted in the beautiful Liverpool Cathedral, and was an incredible evening honouring those making significant differences in their communities. We even got a feature on ITV News 👀 With the ups and downs of being a Co-Founder, these moments really make it worth it. Sophie and I are so proud of all of our students, all the incredible work they do allows us to continue our work, creating an inclusive and diverse community in STEM. Who would have thought in just one year we would have 8 branches across the UK with more to come? 👀 Thank you to everyone that has supported us over the past year, we really do appreciate everything people have done for us and the CyberWomen community. Keep an eye out for some incredible things the team at CyberWomen Groups C.I.C. have planned over the next couple months!
