“Everything to also ‘Yelptropolis’ which is tomorrow night a great, free, fun event celebrating STEM non-profits, and then we have a very cool VIP reception with Comcast on Thursday and then that rolls us into Friday which is a huge conference day. We have twenty different panels and fifty different speakers throughout the day and then the last piece of it, is a ‘block crawl’ downtown visiting six of the hottest technology-related companies in the downtown area,” says Allen.

Dunkeson explains Comcast’s role in this event: “We’ve been a part of the New Mexico Technology Council for a long time; been a wonderful partner. And we’re really excited because this is a great time to be in technology in New Mexico, this industry is expanding, and there are things that people don’t even recognize that are going to change our lives going forward and that’s part of what this group is going to do.”
