While we had a feeling that producing Philly Tech Week 2017 presented by Comcast was a big deal,  the Mayor’s Office has confirmed this much. Mayor Jim Kenney will be speaking during our mayoral tech town hall on Monday, May 1, 9:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m at the PHL Next Stage Space at 3001 Market Street.

Here’s our recap of last year’s mayoral tech town hall.

Be a fly on the wall as Technical.ly’s editorial team engages in a conversation with Kenney highlighting the pulse of Philly’s tech work force. You can even participate in the conversation via Twitter. Our facilitator will select a few questions to ask our guy Jim. Stay tuned for the lineup for our panel on the economic impact of technology, which will follow the Q&A with the mayor.

RSVP

Seats for this engagement are limited and will be capped. Light breakfast fare will be served.
