Editor's Notes

Hello hello, happy Thursday! We're excited to share today that our signature biz-building conference held for the past two years during Philly Tech Week, Introduced by Technical.ly, will now be held virtually on Thursday, May 7. 

 

And because it's virtual, it's easier than ever for folks to join in. You can expect to hear from local leaders like Catalyte CEO Jacob Hsu, but also pros from around the mid-Atlantic. Even more details to come soon, but for now, check out the basics and register below.
