Google Bus Announces Media City Takeover

Google Partner, Cloud Technology Solutions, is set to take over Media City’s Piazza, as it prepares to showcase the true flexibility of the Google for Work platform in an interactive event to share digital know-how and demystify its products with North West businesses.

Cloud Technology Solutions, who is a UK Google for Work Premier Partner, are bringing their digitally enabled double decker bus to the open air venue on July 7th, as part of a nationwide ‘Digital Transformation Roadshow’.

The free event, open to businesses of all size and sectors, is being brought to Salford, a city already recognised as a hub for software and technology, by the the Manchester-based company who already have over 7 million users of their cloud-based software products.

The occasion will offer businesses across the region the chance to experience using Google apps, test the latest cloud-enabled technology and learn how a journey to the cloud can reduce costs and revolutionise the way a whole work force operates. There will also be a whole host of giveaways on board the bus and a chance to hold meetings on the top deck.

James Doggart, CEO of Cloud Technology Solutions, said that the event would be an opportunity to bring together businesses from across the North West as well as providing a great chance for them to learn from a global technology leader. Their current clients in the North West include Bruntwood, Pochin, HE Simm & Son Ltd, The Warehouse Project, Liverpool Football Club and Beautiful drinks (Almost Famous, Socio Rehab & Keko Moku)

He said: “Google is a household name, and has built its business on being ahead of technology trends and this is the same as Cloud Technology Solutions. We endeavor to bring all of our clients the very latest software to enable them and their employees to function in a more cost effective and time-saving manner.

“In an age where local authorities are facing budget cuts of up to 30% and most business are looking for ways to reduce their overheads; cloud computing is becoming a bit of a buzzword. But many are still unsure of its real benefits and full functionalities. So, in a bid to dilute the jargon and upskill attendees, we are touring our top experts around the country in a bus. We have already visited 35 locations and we are excited for our next stop at MediaCityUK.”

Any attendee at the event can receive free, in-person insight from Google experts who can showcase the latest in cloud technology and explain how business can save money and change the way they work by moving to Google for Work.

The event will see the Google Bus arrive at MediaCityUK’s Piazza, on July 7th from 10am until 4pm. More details on the day’s extensive programme and how to book a place can be found here: or call 0161 871 0330.
