Join us for a conversation with Pingboard's Bill Boebel! We'll discuss his background and the events back at Virginia Tech that led to the founding of Webmail, which was eventually acquired by San Antonio based Rackspace. Bill is a co-founder of Capital Factory, angel investor, and is currently the CEO and Founder of Pingboard.
The event will feature light food, plenty of time for networking, a fireside chat and AMA with Bill.
Looking forward to seeing you there!
