OpenSoho

iomart Hosting is delighted to announce that we are supporting those wonderful folks at Netdotworks, with the next three OpenSoho events in London.

Opensoho has been described as a 'room filled with up to 250 buzzing and successful entrepreneurs and tech-savvy people from the tech and media industries ready to blend fun and networking with this informal soiree' - what's not to like!

There's a buzz around London town following the 2008 launch of these monthly informal meet-ups for talented people working in the tech and media industries. Devised by PopJam's Alex Tew and digital media entrepreneur Paul Walsh, OpenSoho has helped create a community of like-minded people causing a clamour for tickets each time they're made available.

With a sponsored bar and late-night dance floor, OpenSoho is a highly acclaimed night on the tiles for those currently causing waves and shaping the future of the UK digital, media and advertising scene. These folk work hard and play harder.

Internet World 2009

1200 Smoothies and 1000 stress fruits later..Internet World is over for another year. This year's show marked the return of iomart hosting after an absence of 7 years (the last time we exhibited connectivity was the big deal and the show was dominated by brands such as AOL, Freeserve (do you remember them?), Tiscali and BT. This time round, with connectivity fully commoditised, the show has moved on to Web 2.0 applications and Internet Marketing.

We thoroughly enjoyed our three days and met some great new friends. Early feedback from the show suggests that our stand was well received, particularly the wonderful smoothies served up by Robert & Kat of Sejuiced, with the Managed Mango being the most popular flavour.

If you did drop by for a smoothie, stress ball or a chat about your hosting needs, then a big thank you. We enjoyed your company and hope that we will get the chance to meet with you again in the near future.
