In a testament to the unwavering commitment to growth, education, and entrepreneurship, we are thrilled to share the inspiring news that our very own managing director, Mary Speakman has recently graduated from the prestigious Oxford University.

This achievement is not only a personal milestone but a reflection of the incredible journey fueled by dedication, continuous learning, and the invaluable support received from the Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses Programme.

The Power of Education and Entrepreneurship

Mary’s journey to Oxford University is a story of passion, resilience, and the pursuit of knowledge. Recognising the transformative impact that education can have on professional growth, our leader embarked on a mission to further enhance their skills and perspectives in the dynamic field of software development.

The Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses Programme

Central to this remarkable achievement is the support received from the Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses Programme. This initiative, designed to empower small business leaders, provided our MD with a unique opportunity to access world-class education, business support, and networking opportunities.

Key Highlights of the Programme

Comprehensive Business Education: The Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses Programme offered a tailored curriculum crafted to address the specific needs of small business leaders. Covering topics ranging from finance and leadership to strategic planning, the program provided Code Galaxy with a holistic understanding of business operations.

Mentorship and Networking: The program facilitated invaluable networking opportunities, connecting Code Galaxy with a diverse cohort of fellow entrepreneurs and business leaders. The exchange of ideas, experiences, and insights fostered a collaborative environment and contributed to the development of a strong support network.

Access to Expert Resources: By participating in the programme, our Code Galaxy gained access to a wealth of expert resources and industry knowledge. This exposure to cutting-edge practices and perspectives enriched their understanding of the software development landscape and contributed to the continued success of our company.

A Bright Future for Our Software Development Company

As we celebrate this significant achievement, we are confident that our newfound insights and skills will propel our software development company to even greater heights. The intersection of education, entrepreneurship, and strategic support from programs like Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses exemplifies our commitment to excellence and continuous improvement.

In closing, we extend our heartfelt congratulations to our managing director, Mary Speakman for this extraordinary accomplishment, and to Goldman Sachs for this remarkable opportunity to learn amongst the world’s best business leaders. We are excited about the future possibilities that this achievement unlocks for our company, and we look forward to continuing to deliver innovative, top-notch software solutions to our valued clients.

Here’s to education, growth, and the limitless potential of business!
