On 12th February, the ITFixio team had the pleasure of exhibiting at Your Business Expo at the University of Northampton, and what a day it was.
From the moment the doors opened, the atmosphere was buzzing with ambition, collaboration, and genuine curiosity. Events like this are exactly why we do what we do, bringing people together, sharing ideas, and building relationships that last well beyond the exhibition floor.

Making New Connections
Throughout the day, we spoke with an incredible range of local business owners, professionals, and fellow exhibitors. From early-stage startups to well-established SMEs, the conversations were thoughtful, open, and refreshingly honest.
Many attendees stopped by our stand to talk about their IT challenges, cybersecurity concerns, and growth plans, and we loved having those real-world discussions. It’s always rewarding to see that businesses are becoming more proactive about their IT and genuinely interested in doing things the right way.

Turning Conversations into Partnerships
Beyond introductions, the expo was a fantastic platform for building meaningful partnerships. We connected with organisations and professionals whose values align closely with ours, collaboration, trust, and long-term thinking.
These early conversations are already shaping exciting opportunities, and we’re confident several will turn into partnerships that help local businesses thrive together.

Recognition That Meant a Lot 💛
One of the real highlights for us was being recognised with the Best Merch Award.
A special thank you goes to Tracey Bose from BEB Contract & Legal Services, who publicly shared her experience and kind words about ITFixio following the event, especially considering we had only just met. Hearing that our notebooks were useful (and that the ginger biscuits didn’t last long!) genuinely made our day.
Feedback like this reminds us that the small details matter, and that thoughtful, practical touches leave a lasting impression.

Music, Atmosphere, and a Brilliant Venue 🎶
Adding an extra layer of magic to the day was Lincoln Noel, who entertained everyone with live piano music throughout the event. His performance created a relaxed, uplifting atmosphere that made networking feel natural and enjoyable rather than rushed.
The Creative Hub proved to be the perfect venue, modern, welcoming, and full of energy.

Champagne Wins All Round 🥂
It wouldn’t be a proper business expo without a bit of fun!
🎉 Our ITFixio Champagne Competition was won by Billie Passchier from Stanwick Lakes, congratulations!

🍾 We were also delighted to win the Yellowyoyo Card Draw Fizz ourselves, which definitely added to the celebratory mood.

A great reminder that business events can (and should) be enjoyable as well as productive.
Looking Ahead
Your Business Expo reinforced why we love being part of the local business community. The openness, collaboration, and ambition on display were genuinely inspiring.
To everyone who stopped by our stand, entered a competition, shared insights, or simply said hello, thank you. We’re already following up on conversations and looking forward to seeing where these new connections lead.
If you didn’t get a chance to speak with us on the day but would like to continue the conversation, we’d love to hear from you.
Let’s thrive together.
The ITFixio Team
