Balancing bytes and bites: Running a food business alongside a tech career

Mark McWhirter at Everyman Cinema on 2nd May, 2024.

Amidst the upheaval of the 2020 lockdowns, a global phenomenon emerged – the rise of the home pizza oven. As COVID swept the world, so did a newfound passion for homemade pizzas. Hear all about the journey from engineering to the cheesy world of part-time pizzaiolo. Four years on, Mark has continued his career in engineering but also balanced over 80 food pop-ups last year.

In his talk, he'll reveal the motivations, methods, and timeline behind this adventure.
