ScotlandIS and CyberNorth partnership event

Join ScotlandIS in partnership with CyberNorth for a stimulating day of knowledge-sharing, networking and collaboration at our ‘lunch and learn’ event in Newcastle. 

Our speakers represent organisations with a footprint in Scotland and the North. They are subject matter experts who will share a wealth of knowledge on business resilience, supply chain security, and how the ITMSP Best Practice Charter, gaining momentum in Scotland, is shaping the future of IT security.

The event aims to bring together MSPs, cyber companies, and other professionals from within that security supply chain to foster networking opportunities, and facilitate the sharing of challenges and best practices.

Together, let’s drive excellence and innovation in the cyber security and managed services community across Scotland and the North.
