TechWalk

☀️Thank you Christine Farrier Rosemin for organizing #TechWalk in Central Park today. Had a wonderful chat with Pooja Majmudar, PhD about women-led venture firms funding #reproductivehealth solutions, and connected with other engineers, entrepreneurs, and investors! It was an unseasonably warm autumn day, and we broke a bit of sweat walking and networking. Looking forward to the next meet-and-walk!

📣 Tell us if you specialize in a Technical or non-Technical role and specify your role in the comments to find your peers in the tech industry. The tech industry is not a monolith. There's a wide range of expert knowledge and experience that propels the tech industry. 👩💻 📊 🗃 👨💻 The #TechWalk community reflects this diverse collection of minds. Don't know if your role is considered Technical or Non-Technical? Check out this article by johnbull owenvbugie. https://lnkd.in/edMq_qBB In short: Technical tech jobs require specialized knowledge and skills in a particular area of technology. These jobs often involve coding, engineering, or other technical tasks. Non-technical tech jobs do not require specialized technical skills. These jobs often involve customer service, marketing, or sales. #Socialnetworking #technology #techcommunity

👻 🧛🏽 Scariest Marketing Phrases? 👻 🧛🏽 Mine is "just make it look pretty". And then having to explain to someone that I am just not that sort of marketer. I can make it rain. I can make it make sense. I can make it data-driven. And I can make it exceed goal. But I CANNOT make it look pretty. Although I do know pretty when I see it. So it is with genuine joy and relief that I am grateful to announce that Sydney Pennington has joined the TechWalk team as a graphic design intern. WELCOME SYDNEY! Sydney graduated from University at Albany with an honors designation in Computer Science and has developed an interest in the intersection of tech, UX and design. She will be exploring brand strategy, identity, elements and guidelines as part of her work with us, and I am really looking forward to see the application of her curiosity and talent to how #TechWalk shows up in the world. Design experts in my network - would you be open to having an informational conversation with Sydney?

LA TECH WEEK by a16z Day 1! 🚀 It is amazing how a face-to-face conversation can create a deeper connection. Sharing an activity together, like taking a walk in the park or doing yoga together, can motivate those endorphins for some next-level thinking. I had the honor of co-hosting the LA TechWalk with Qapita, hosted by Christine Farrier Rosemin & Caroline Gomes, where we took networking outside for a refreshing change of pace. Walking and talking with founders and other tech pros led to some inspiring connections. It was a great reminder that meaningful relationships can grow in the most organic settings. 🌿 Huge shoutout to the other co-hosts, Amit Majumder, CFA, Dave Edmunds, Marta Borovets, Joresa Blount, Adam Stansell, Anton Reza, Kevin Wallace, Sarah Tran, Julian Vergel de Dios YU CHEN. Next, I attended the Rise & Empower Yoga & CPG Startup Showcase hosted by Open Venture Capital, Wellness Growth Ventures, Empowered Yoga Studio, and Oya Femtech Apparel—an energizing event that combined wellness and entrepreneurship. Meeting fellow women founders who are innovating in the consumer goods space was a true highlight. Their passion and creativity reminded me why I love being a female founder. 💪🏼🩷 Thank you to Mitchella Gilbert, MBA, Kimberley Nixon, and Rachel Hirsch for putting together this event! I try not to miss events like Culture House Official’s cultureSPARK founded by Marlon C. Nichols & Rodney Williams, dedicated to addressing the funding gap for diverse founders. As we all know, Black and Latino founders combined only make up 2.4% of VC funding. The more events that highlight this need, the more of a chance we have to move that needle! 🪡 Baron Davis, Founder of Business Inside the Game (BIG) shared his journey from National Basketball Association (NBA) star to serial entrepreneur at Founder Friends, hosted by Eric Bahn and Hustle Fund at BLANKSPACES Coworking, the former Snap Inc. HQ in Venice Beach. His unique story and insights into resilience, risk, and reinvention are truly inspiring for anyone navigating the startup world. 🏀 It’s all these real-life connections and moments that fuel the mission behind Limon - creating a platform where authentic stories inspire others to live fully and share their journeys. 🍋 Excited to share my Day 2 recap next! #LATechWeek2024 #StartupLife #Founders

The agency my husband is working for is hiring for several marketing/tech/sales positions. It's a truly great agency and these positions are remote. If anyone is interested, let me know so we can refer you. I hope this helps those in my network looking for their next opportunity, especially those that have recently been laid off. https://lnkd.in/eryqHWN3
