Take our ‘Philly innovation history’ trivia challenge

Technical.ly has an interactive trivia quiz for you sorting through 400 years of big thinking for the wrap-up of the 10th annual Philly Tech Week presented by Comcast.

As this country goes, Philadelphia is an old place.

Inventive thinking means that, you might say: “Innovation Been Here.” That was the rallying cry for the 10th annual installment of Philly Tech Week — even after it was postponed by a pandemic and turned virtual.

Organized by Technical.ly and presented by Comcast, #PTW20 finished last week. But if you missed some of the fun, we’re running back one of our games this week. For our all-virtual Signature Event replacement, Technical.ly organized a spirited game of “Philly innovation history” trivia.

You can still play via the Kahoot app — and have a shot at real prizes, including a signed copy of “How I Built This,” the new book from Guy Raz, who keynoted our Introduced by Technical.ly conference.
