Local digital marketers, creatives and business owners return to The Skill Exchange on Thursday 23 May at No64 in Ryde.

Two digital specialists will present topical workshops on the latest trends with opportunities to ask questions and network.

The Skill Exchange continues to inspire local business owners, freelancers and marketers every quarter with free talks on different topics.

As these talks continue, introducing new ways to learn is essential. From Thursday 23 May, we'll be introducing 'whistle-stop workshops' - an opportunity for you to learn something new, in a practical way.

These workshops will be delivered by local specialists on one topic in 20 minutes. From Google My Business to writing a Facebook post, you'll learn something new in record time.
