Recruiter announces return of tech event

Edinburgh-based IT recruitment firm Cathcart Associates has announced the return of an event it believes will help accelerate the Scottish tech scene.

The firm, which also has offices in England and Thailand, said that following the success of last year’s inaugural Scotland Machine Learning conference in Edinburgh, Scotml will take place this Thursday at Quartermile.

Cathcart said attendees will be able to meet top figures from the data science, machine learning and AI sectors in a relaxed environment. Guest speakers include Boris Mitrovic, senior data scientist at Mudano; Elias Mistler, data scientist at Previse; and Dick Wall, BI solutions architect at Trustmarque Solutions.

Sam Wason, director at Cathcart, said: “The thriving Scottish tech scene has become home to some of the most innovative and exciting projects taking place in the UK right now, especially around AI and data science. We’re confident that events like Scotml are key a great way to stimulate this.”
