First One Under Our Belts...

Last night was our first IGNITE Syracuse event and although I'm completely biased, I think it went really well! We ended up having 8 presenters and roughly 70 people come to see the presentations and learn about some cool projects going on around the city of Syracuse. Thank you to everyone who helped out with this event and who came out to show their support. It was encouraging to learn about creative projects that are happening right in our own city.

The next IGNITE is slated for August 13th, location TBA. Below are a few pictures from the event.
