Still wasting hours on manual processing while your competitors automate everything?

7pm on 22nd January 2026 • Morgans Hotel, Swansea

Does This Sound Familiar?

You're not alone. These are the conversations we have every month.

You're the HR Department, the IT Department, and Everything in Between

You didn't start a business to spend your evenings chasing invoices and fixing spreadsheets. Yet here you are.

Money is Leaking and You're Not Sure Where

Repetitive tasks, manual errors, time wasted on things that should be automatic. It all adds up.

Everyone Talks Tech, But Nobody Explains It

Cloud this, AI that. You know technology could help, but where do you even start without getting a sales pitch?

You Want to Get Out More

Running a business can be isolating. Sometimes you just need a drink and an honest conversation with people who get it.

Your Host

Meet Robert Johnstone

Robert isn't a consultant trying to sell you something. He's a technology leader who's spent his career solving real commercial problems for real businesses.

He's helped companies scale from £150k to £7.2m in revenue through smart technology choices. He's saved businesses hundreds of thousands of pounds through automation.

But more importantly, he speaks plain English and genuinely wants to help local business owners navigate the technology landscape without the usual confusion.

Connect on LinkedIn

"Robert helped us automate our accounts processing. What used to take our team an entire week now happens automatically. We saved £63,000 in the first year alone, but honestly, getting my weekends back was worth even more."
