Social Hour - Emerging Leaders Network
Emerging Leaders Networking Event
A new style of relationship-building for young professionals under 40.
Is San Diego a tech hub? That is the question Claude Jones asked a small group of passionate professionals looking to make a difference in the San Diego tech community. After deep discussion, they realized a unified tech front was missing. That sparked a movement toward change. Claude and his team had a mission - be conduits for change by helping to build a stronger San Diego tech community through collaboration. Their goal is not to duplicate efforts, but rather bridge gaps and encourage connections to drive transformative change across the tech community within San Diego.
Claude will also talk about how Walmart decided to choose North San Diego as their location for Walmart Labs.
