There are more than 110 events on the calendar for the fourth annual Philly Tech Week 2014 presented by AT&T (April 4-12). That’s overwhelming. So with just 8 days until it all goes down, we’ll be sharing the calendar from one of our team members to give you a sense of where you might want to be.
If you’re interested in access issues, social community building and social entrepreneurship, you should follow our Events Coordinator.

- Fri. Apr. 4, Arcade at the Oval: This is going to be the event that brings everyone in the city together. People will remember this one for years to come. Can’t wait to be a part of it.
- Sat. Apr. 5, Dev Day: Excited to get a sneak peak at all of the hottest trends in the wonderful world of web development. Hoping to learn some skills through osmosis as I run around making sure everything’s running smoothly.
- Mon. Apr. 7, Tech Mix it Up – A Diversity Networking Affair: This event came from an idea to make PTW more diverse, and that’s a mission very close to my heart. Excited to welcome new faces to the community.

Apr. 10, Exploring Civic Volunteering with Technology: Kickoff for Commit Service Pledge: This event and project highlights one of my favorite things about our local tech community: we give back.

- Thur. Apr. 10, Rad Girls Launch Party: I recently starting contributing to this awesome new website that highlights women in Philadelphia who are doing inspiring work. Excited to meet future contributors and other rad girls at the launch.
- Fri. Apr. 11, Philly Tech Week Signature Event: Ask anyone and they will tell you: this is the not-to-be-missed tech event of the year. It’s an opportunity to hang out with all of the attendees from the week, imbibe (open bar) and make some new friends…in fancy clothes.
