One hundred tech meetups of solitude

While going to events alone can be daunting for some, it's one of my favorite things to do, especially when I'm attending business networking events. I believe that attending events alone gives you the opportunity to meet new people and make new friends because you're not tied down to those you came with. You can freely interact with others without worrying about leaving someone out.
 
Attending events alone always allows me to immerse myself in the experience fully. Does anyone else like to explore an event at your own pace? Do you enjoy taking in the sights and sounds, and learning new things that you might not have learned if you were with others? The Hutch incubator's program manager Stephanie Chin shares this sentiment about going solo in an article you'll find below, along with other insights for our soon-to-wrap How to Get a Tech Job Month.

Perhaps you'll see the Technical.ly team and me at Philly Tech Week, whether you're solo or with a group. Let us know if you'll be there!
