We're excited to have Jason Fried take part in the 2020 Forward Fest! Among many potential topics, you'll hear about Jason's latest project, HEY.com, that's rethinking the most ubiquitous tool of the digital age: email. Recently, HEY has been on the front lines of the battle for developer rights on the App Store. Use the wall on the Forward Fest app (web or mobile) to post questions for Jason. Susie Younkle, Program Director at MERLIN Mentors, will moderate the session.

About Jason Fried

Jason Fried is the Founder and CEO of Basecamp, formerly known as 37signals. Basecamp is a remote-first company that was remote-first way before most companies would have considered it feasible. Basecamp (the product) was the world's first Ruby of Rails app with the Rails platform invented by Basecamp partner David Heinemeir Hansson. Jason believes there's real value and beauty in the basics. He is a best-selling author who has co-written Getting Real, REWORK, and REMOTE. He speaks around the world on entrepreneurship, design, management, and software.

About FTC Sessions

The Forward Festival was conceived in 2010 as a single event: the Forward Technology Conference ("FTC"). As the Forward Festival has grown over the past decade, to its current form of dozens of events over eight days, FTC has remained a common thread that has always been run by entrepreneurs, for entrepreneurs. Like many other Forward Fest events, FTC has moved to a virtual format in 2020. Rather than run a full-day virtual event, we've chosen to bring you great content in the form of FTC Sessions spaced throughout the week of Forward Fest.

This event is a part of Forward Festival 2020.

This event is included with your Forward Pass which is available at no cost this year thanks to our sponsors. Sign up to get yours today to get access to this event and 30+ others.
