Startup Grind with Brigitte Daniel [event recap]

On July 9th, the Pennovation Center was honored to host Brigitte Daniel, EVP of Wilco Electronic Systems, for Startup Grind. Startup Grind is an intimate fireside chat with entrepreneurs from the Philadelphia community. Hosted by Jenn Maher, CEO of 1776, these chats are a great way for fellow entrepreneurs to learn from an entrepreneur's journey, best practices, and prove to be a more candid look at what entrepreneurship means. Storytelling is an essential piece of growth and Brigitte's story is important for all, including fellow entrepreneurs who may not see themselves represented in the current ecosystem.

Over the last few years, Brigitte has created several substantial private/public partnerships providing innovative solutions to address digital disparities and lack of representation within technology sectors across the nation. Driven by her mission to address digital divides and tech diversity and inclusion inequities, Brigitte has emerged as a national thought leader and was recently appointed to the FCC’s Federal Advisory Committee on Diversity and Digital Empowerment by Chairman Ajit Pai in 2017.
