Delaware Innovation Week 2018 is in full swing, and it’s only going to get better. If you missed the kickoff party at DCAD on Friday or the FIRST Robotics showcase at Kingswood Community Center, there’s plenty more to come, including Technical.ly’s Business Conference at the Emerging Enterprise Center on Tuesday and our Dev Conference at DTCC on Wednesday. But, unless you’ve been sleeping for the last couple weeks, you already knew that.
What you might not know about are DIW’s hidden gems — the smaller, less known events happening this week in Wilmington and Newark.
