Join us on Tuesday, May 21 inside WRAL’s historic Studio A as WRAL TechWire dives into the topic of social impact. WRAL TechWire Live, presented by Wells Fargo, will focus on defining social impact and why social impact work is necessary. See how Triangle nonprofits are working like startups to devise innovative solutions to many of the problems facing our region and neighbors, and learn how startups and businesses of all shapes and sizes can learn to work more like these nonprofits as they champion what’s important to them. Finally, access resources that can help you plug-in where you best fit and either continue or begin a meaningful journey of engaging "the other" and building communities where we all can thrive.

Confirmed speakers include:

Rob Shields, Executive Director, ReCity
Geraud Staton, Executive Director, The Helius Foundation
Maggie Kane, Founder & Executive Director, A Place at the Table
Panel Moderator: Jes Averhart, Executive Director, Leadership Triangle

Our event is free, but advanced registration is required and limited seating is available. Parking is available onsite.
