Happy Monday! Two exciting notes from the Technical.ly newsroom this eve:

 

First, the Technical.ly Awards are back, and you have a chance to shape them. We're honoring the top companies, leaders and organizations making tech communities better across the mid-Atlantic. Through Nov. 3, tell us who should be considered for each of these categories:

  • Invention of the Year
  • Tech Community Leader of the Year
  • CTO of the Year
  • Startup of the Year
  • Growth Company of the Year
  • Culture Builder of the Year

And second, we're preparing to launch a weekly newsletter pilot focusing on innovation in Milwaukee. Why Milwaukee, you may ask? Read all about it in the announcement below.

 

And as always, our inboxes are open to hear about what you see trending or needing more attention in your local tech community. Respond to this email with pitches, tips or feedback.
