We're social at Communitech. We know that networking is about more than connections; we also like to learn from those who've paved the way before us, and to have some fun along the way.
And so, we're glad to host Techtoberfest, our entrepreneur-focused conference that will take over the Communitech Hub Oct. 17-18, 2013.
In its second year, Techtoberfest focuses on mixing keynotes, breakouts and networking opportunities. You will not sit still for long during the conference.
Noteworthy keynotes include:
Alexis Ohanian, co-founder of reddit and an invite-only speaker at last year's Techtoberfest. We're excited to have him as a keynote this year.
Jeff Hoffman, co-founder and CEO of ColorJar. He writes for Inc. magazine and works with the U.S. government to support business and economic growth.
Daniel Debow, who drives sales performance management as a senior VP with Salesforce, which acquired Rypple, a company he co-founded, in 2012.
Stephen Lake, CEO of Waterloo Region's own Thalmic Labs. Stephen will be doing a Q and A with Daniel Debow.
Robert Richman, a culture architect and author of the upcoming Culture Blueprint. Robert built and launched Zappos Insights, the Zappos Family company dedicated to helping businesses with their cultures.
