Anyone working in big tech (Microsoft, Google, etc.) or late-stage tech startup in any location that is a day trip away from #Nottingham who may be open to invite a group of tech newbies for an office tour/open day?
I have an idea and am in need of leads.

[entering 2022] I'm reminiscing how, since the dreadful 2020, any time a major @projectfunction idea has been so nearly ready for kickoff, covid ft. its ruthless variants has thrown a spanner in the works.
feeling my resolve dwindle has been an awful experience. (1/2)

It's structure/commitment in a group-based learning env. that attracts folks, IMO. Else, the content isn't very special/unique & is then restricted for those with surplus time+money.
to shameless plug: there's a middle ground b/w bootcamps & self-learning e.g @projectfunction π
