As for Laine-Toner, he has some tough decisions to make. "The problem I'm now faced with is that I'm approaching 30, I'm at quite a senior level in Sainsbury and being paid quite decent money but I don't have an understanding of some technical areas that I would have if I was in a decent-sized SME, which is quite worrying," he says. Will he try to persuade his girlfriend to move to London so he can stay with Sainsbury? Or will he leave the security and status of a blue chip to try his luck in Leeds? It all depends on how well those networking evenings go.
