We’ve put together this handy guide to help you navigate the weeklong celebration of technology and innovation in the First State.
Here’s what we’ve got:

  1. Events that are close to college campuses
  2. Events that are free
  3. Events that are so thought-provoking they will help you put what you learned in school into perspective
  4. Events that are downright fun

2. Free (or close to it):
3. Thought provoking:
4. Downright fun:
  • Nov. 18, 5 p.m., #DIW16 Innovation Celebration* at 1313 Innovation
    • This is our closing party, where you network with leaders of the Delaware tech scene and other cool people. Be sure to bring some business cards.
