Introduce yourself

Exciting news, Baltimore: Tomorrow marks one week until Technical.ly’s Introduced conference during Philly Tech Week presented by Comcast 2022, and even less time until our Developers Conference!
 
First — why should you, a Baltimore tech human, care about a "Philly" Tech Week? PTW has never been just for Philadelphians, promise. We know there will be plenty of lessons across the entire week for tech pros of any geography.
 
This year’s Introduced brings all of the best of our signature company-building conference together. You can expect pre-recorded sessions led by innovators in the industry on topics like how to implement salary transparency, what makes a great brand marketing campaign, and how to kill the onboarding experience.
 
Then, join us IRL for small group breakout sessions focusing on topics like: What does remote work look like now? And what does local mean in a remote world? What changes when you hit 50 employees?
 
And you can’t miss the rooftop VIP reception, our annual Signature Event. Make the trek for the interactive technologies, stay for the great company, food and open bar. We hope to see you there!
