Building business on solid IT

The luxury five-star Celtic Manor resort in Newport, Wales, was a fitting venue for the Optix Software annual conference, which marked its 10th anniversary in 2017.

The event has earned itself a reputation within UK optics for providing a mix of take home content for Optix software users – from practical workshops or inspiration from high profile speakers on the day-to-day running of a practice. In the past, speakers have included Alistair Campbell and William Hague. This year’s lineup included TV physicist Professor Brian Cox, explorer Sir Ranulph Fiennes, sporting mastermind Sir Clive Woodward and BBC’s business reporter Steph McGovern.
