Tech is transforming the local workforce. What can DC companies do to keep up?

Companies like Booz Allen, Amazon and Capital One showed the highest share of tech job listings in the D.C. area in 2017, DC Inno reported, but what attracted these companies to the District? And what attracted potential employees to these companies?

As a part of DC Startup Week, 1776 and Technical.ly are hosting a conversation with prominent local organizations Thursday, Sept. 27 at 4 p.m.

“Hire DC: A Conversation of Workforce Development” will feature panelists discussing how they find the people that keep their companies technologically advanced.

Technically Media CEO Christopher Wink will moderate the discussion.

The panelists are:

• Paul Klein, Chief of Staff at Hatch Apps
• Matt Lozada, Senior Executive at Pype.io
• Mawulom Nenonene, Talent Leader and Diversity and Inclusion Advocate at NAVA
• Lori Leadingham, Chief of Staff at GSP Financial

During DC Startup Week, Technical.ly is offering one-month free trials of its digital Talent platform for companies hoping to improve their employer-brand awareness and reach high-quality candidates in the D.C. area.
