🚕 NYC Tech Week has begun. In conjunction with it, we’re coming at ya with some opportunities to delve into the future of tech, work, media, and beyond. And you’re invited.
Tech Pod is run by the scrappy team over at Free Agency – an NYC-based, tech-focused, talent startup – and we’re hosting a lineup of stellar movers, shakers, and leaders to deep-dive into what it’s like to be a part of a growing, changing, thriving industry.
Here’s the lineup:
