Yesterday was our last #BCSTT class and its definitely bittersweet to be an alumn of such an amazing experience but I can’t wait to put into action everything I’ve learned. Thank you @BCSheaCenter, @profkane, Kelsey, @JereDoyle, & @krisdickinson for making the trip exceptional!
Uber and Lyft continue to plan for growth despite upcoming congressional meetings and investor concerns about profitability...who should be most concerned? Excited to hear the perspective of a past Uber employee in class today #BCSTT#D

This article points out Warby Parker as a model example of brand storytelling -- I think their model of being open and real with customers was definitely evident during our visit with them last week! Thanks again @WarbyParker for the great insights #BCSTT

@katiegoglia Great article! I loved hearing from start-ups about maintaining focus on delivering a quality product to customers amidst the craziness of scaling and growing the business #BCSTT
@Mary__Holt @PublicHello @MoneyLion @socureme Still thinking about that awesome fintech panel even a week later. I love that they all emphasized finding importance in your work, and was inspired by how their current ventures are empowering so many people in the realm of access/democratization of financial services #BCSTT
Tips in this article remind me of some advice we received: be honest with yourself and with others. Also helpful in response to the sometimes daunting fact brought up by @OliviaGooch4 on the importance of speed as an element of success #BCSTT
Good to see rising standards of accountability for environmental footprints -- loved hearing about the cross between technology and sustainability in business at the BC Tech Council event in NYC #BCSTT
Exxon Mobil will go on trial today on charges that it lied to shareholders and the public about the costs and consequences of climate change. It could be a bellwether for other lawsuits intended to hold fossil fuel companies accountable.

This founder isn't just using technology to complement the industry, she's trying to change the underlying architecture of e-commerce. If you loved hearing from founders on our Tech Trek trip, here's another good story for you! #BCSTT
@georglliott @OptimusRide Very smart of them to understand practical applications of radical technology and experiment with it within a limited environment. Guess we'll just have to go back to NYC now!! #BCSTT
Three best pieces of advice I got from #BCSTT :
1. Get comfortable being uncomfortable
2. Your time is your most valuable asset
3. Things won't happen for you--be proactive and create your own luck!
So proud to host @BostonCollege students @TwitterNYC. #BCSTT is always the highlight of my year.
Honored to have @ColinCrowell share his invaluable wisdom that’s led to an indelible legacy @Policy. A @BCAlumni that truly embodies BC’s values. We’re all grateful for your time 🙏🏻
One of the many people I owe thanks to for making Tech Trek such an enlightening experience! Grateful for the insights into your work as well as advice on resiliency and trusting your gut when building a successful career #BCSTT
Just did a Q&A with a great group of students from Boston College Biz School (visiting 10+ NYC tech companies in 2 days). Lots of great Qs, and great swag (👧🏼❄️ will get the notebook and I’ll eat those bitcoins) #BCSTT (ps: and give @mary__holt an A+!)

@ChrisWhipple17 Great example of a technology company taking responsibility for the social implications of its creations -- whether or not these negative implications were a part of the original intention of the feature #BCSTT
@BarankoRyan Reminds me of the mention from class about ClassPass having a large office in Missoula, MT! From a standpoint of recruiting talent, I think it's definitely a smart move to diversify location #BCSTT
Gender inequality in tech and entrepreneurship is a serious issue, but there are ways in which we can all help to combat it! Check out my blog post on the topic!! #BCSTT#D https://t.co/o92ggQpn5a
Last week we talked about ethical implications of technology — another implication to consider is AI’s role in reshaping politics. Should we be concerned about the future of a digital authoritarian state? #BCSTT#D
