The envelope, please...

On Wednesday, It's time time to celebrate the best in tech and entrepreneurship from cities around the mid-Atlantic. On Thursday, we'll be conducting a live interview. It's all happening on the Technical.ly Slack.

 

This Wednesday, Dec. 15, the winners of the 2021 Technical.ly Awards will be announced live from 4 to 5:30 p.m. Tune in to congratulate them in real time, then stick around to virtually meet folks from all of Technical.ly's markets. Awards categories are Invention, Tech Community Leader, CTO, Startup, Growth Company and Culture Builder of the Year.

 

Then on Thursday, Dec. 16, Garry Johnson III will be live in the #ama channel in conversation with reporter Holly Quinn. Garry is the founder of First Founders Accelerator and Bison Venture Partners and is a nationally recognized ecosystem builder committed to a more equitable innovation economy. He will be talking about entrepreneurship and capital funding, including Regulation Crowdfunding on Wefunder.

 

Join Technical.ly's Slack here to participate in both.
