Adventi continues to invest in education |

Friday 24th April
Adventi, Scotland’s fastest growing IT services business, today announced that it would present at the forthcoming IT4U Conference at Heriott Watt University.
In a unique collaboration, Edinburgh, Heriott Watt and Napier Universities have joined forces with local employers to encourage today’s schoolchildren to become tomorrow’s computing professionals. Adventi’s workshop will focus on building applications for the iPhone platform.
Earlier today, Eddie Chance CEO of Adventi commented, “We are delighted to be associated with this event. From an Adventi perspective it accomplishes two things; firstly, it supports our CSR focus in helping provide enhanced learning experiences for children in schools but more importantly we are keen to ensure today’s’ schoolchildren come face to face with the opportunities that computing presents. In the next few weeks we will be announcing the details of our iPhone application competition and the workshop we will present will challenge the young people with identifying ideas for new iPhone applications. The best ideas will be taken forward and there will be an opportunity to see these applications commercialised.
The IT4U event takes place at Heriott Watt University on 28th May 2009.
