The first two days of Philly Tech Week are down. Now we’re at Day 3. I enjoyed the Tech walk as a way to network while getting in steps. I hope that more come out next year. In the meantime, there are plenty of events that you can check out still.
Housekeeping:

If you know of any startup in the Philadelphia/Greater Delaware Valley region that’s in the intersection of Tech (AI, Data Science, Simulation, hardware, etc.), and Biology in any/all sense (medicine, plants, veterinary, molecular, etc.), or even on the Chemistry side, tell them to DM me.

Final Thoughts:
As Katie said, it’s all about the follow up. When you connect with people, go follow up with them to keep the connections going. Remmeber that during Philadelphia Tech Week.
