Editor's Notes

When times are weird, it's nice to be able to share some good news: Technical.ly is happy to be expanding its newsroom with the addition of two Report for America fellows. They'll be covering issues of equity and access within the tech communities of Baltimore and Philly, two rapidly changing mid-Atlantic cities. Look for their work starting this June.

 

P.S. Don't forget to register for Introduced|Virtual, Technical.ly's signature biz-building conference happening Thursday, May 7. More details here.
