The funny thing about the upcoming holidays is that all of Philadelphia tries to pack in their events in first few weeks of December leaving us with a jam packed events calendar. Luckily, we comb through all of the tech listings to pluck out the gems so you dont have to.
This week, save the world with social media, build robots at Hive76 and drink with some entrepreneurial types.
Technically Philly is made possible by advertisers and sponsors that are important to Philadelphia’s technology community. This week we’d like to thank:
