Party at URBN and close out Philly Tech Week 2016 in style

We return to URBN (hello, 2013!) for the annual Philly Tech Week Signature Event. If you had to pick just one event for #PTW16, this is it.

This isn’t just a cocktail party. It’s play time for adults.

We shut down Philly Tech Week 2013 at URBN’s Navy Yard HQ and we’re excited to bring it back for 2016. If you haven’t been to URBN HQ yet, it’s a larger, industrial version of some of the fashion conglomerate’s retail stores. It overlooks a shipyard. It’s amazing.
Hang with over 1,000 members of the Philly tech community while chatting over drinks and video games. Last year’s attendees took home little vials of DNA from Biomeme, did some brain training with Narbis glasses, played an artistic harp from The Hacktory, got 3D-scanned by NRI 3D Labs and more.
