How can we ensure events are hitting the right audiences and adding value? This group at @techsuperpowers has some ideas!

More intimate formats, themed networking+activity combo, attendee outcome identifiers, inclusive event timing and beverage options.

[Scott Kirsner @ScottKirsner]

Fun gathering last night @techsuperpowers in the South End, talking about leveling up events for the BOS ecosystem... being more open... and bringing in more students. Organized by @BobbieC.

(Best picture ever of @sarafraim???)
