Culture, Tech, and Brands

Does culture influence tech, or does tech push culture forward? Hear how tech is seeping into our local art, music, fashion, and entertainment shaping the culture of Atlanta from local movers and shakers. We host thought-leaders from various industries — such as music, entertainment, tech, brand — to explore the intersection between their respective field and tech. Our conversation is about the tech rise, ways you have adapted and innovated to cut through the noise, and what do you envision the future of tech & culture looks like.
