“well that’s what you’ve always done”
Earlier this year we were invited to help inform Government Policy on Resources and Waste Strategy by the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra). The topics covered include circularity and sustainability of procurement and operations, our opinion on consumer trends, how we adapt to changes in the policy landscape related to resource and waste, and…

Padlocks – you’ll find them on the shed door, or more recently on city centre bridges, commonly known as ‘love locks’. So why are we mentioning them in our blog this month? To remind you that our team are here to support and strengthen your software and cyber security. GCHQ have warned us all of an…
Read MoreLike Technologies and BECBC
Increasing our visibility was something we set out to achieve in 2023. We wanted more people to know about us and what we do. It’s a fine balance, making ourselves more visible by attending events alongside being in the office and working in the business. A small team we might be but by collectively making…
Read MoreProgressing into 2024
Progress is what we will achieve in 2024. Our projects, and people, will progress as we work with new and existing clients and partners. Reminded of Audi and their series of adverts relating to progress, which you can watch here, the statements that “progress is anything but a straight path” and “making progress requires an open mind” are relevant…

Read MoreRefurbish to Sustain
At Like Technologies we have two company meetings per year. It’s an opportunity for the team to come together, share knowledge and provide an update from each department. At the most recent one, held in May, one of our engineers Simon, updated us on an ongoing project that he would describe as ‘important but not complicated’. The…
Read MoreSearching for the ‘doing’ words
We’ve spoken about our hardware and software engineers before and if you look at the case studies on our website, they’re likely to be about our workshop team. It can be trickier to tell you about the work our IS team get up to but that doesn’t mean it’s any less important. They’ve recently supported…
Read MoreJust two, not fifty-two.
At Like Technologies, there’s not a lot we say no to. Often, an existing client will ask us to reproduce a product and our answer will be along the lines of, “let’s take a look first, but yes, I’m sure we’ll be able to help you.” In the most recent case, we were asked to…
