The macc.xyz tech community returns to the Bollington Brewery Tap on Thursday, June 4th for its monthly meetup.

Following a fun gaming focused event in May, the evening offers a mix of high-level tech talks and informal networking for Macclesfield's amazing digital sector.

Whether you are a developer, founder, designer, or just curious about the local tech scene, come along to meet like-minded people and hear from two local experts:

Stuart Logan (Twine): Stuart joins us for a conversation about the evolution of Twine. He will walk us through their journey from starting as a music collaboration platform to scaling into a global creative freelancer marketplace that now supports over a million users. Expect a look into the technical and business realities of hitting massive scale.

Simon Ellis (Pets At Home): Simon is the Head of AI Transformation and Architecture at Pets At Home. He will break down what AI and agentic adoption actually look like inside a major UK retailer. This is a practical look at how large organisations are moving past the hype and actively deploying agentic architecture to solve real-world operational challenges.
