The cloud is something we hear about all the time. "Just save it all in the cloud!" adverts proclaim everywhere. Join us as we demystify cloud computing to show how and why the cloud is more than just a place for storing thousands of puppy pictures. In this episode, we talk through data, the environment, privacy and much more with our two specialist guests from Microsoft- Dr Ian McDonald, CTO in residence at Microsoft for Startups Europe, and Simona Cotin, Startup Advocacy Lead. We hope this episode helps to illuminate the power and possibilities of cloud computing for you as much as it did for our hosts, Anisah and Serena. Plus, check out the joint effort in our rapid-fire game. Press play now! (Transcript to be found on Youtube and Medium)

Coding plays a huge part in all of our lives; it is the gap between human language and computer language. It’s what allows us to build apps and websites, to order from self check out machines, to put on a headpiece and be transported to a different world, and to count our steps from the watch on our wrists. In films and on TV, there is always someone typing ferociously away- the hacker character. We wanted to delve into what coding actually looks like day to day, away from the stereotypes. For our first ever episode, Anisah and Serena will be demystifying coding with our specialist guest, Jenny Brennan! Jenny is a developer and has worked for companies such as Twitter and works on her own projects which focus on making tech more inclusive. Jenny will be explaining what coding is and all the different things you can do with it and much more! Press play to get started and don't forget to subscribe. Find out more https://bit.ly/2ksVvCv
