VIRTUAL MEETUP: Gillian Delaunay – Celebrating a ‘Not Normal’ Founder Journey Into Disruptive Tech

A waitress, a stewardess on a billionaire's yacht, a celebrity nanny, a fitness instructor- but I was always the Founder and CEO of a disruptive tech company. How passion and ingenuity gives you the special sauce to solve a problem no one else can. Join Gillian on a journey to banish imposter syndrome and to celebrate YOUR unique disruptions. Bottom line: You are meant to share your uniqueness with the world for our species survival, not maintain industry bubbles.

ABOUT OUR MEETUP

These are weekly coffee meet-ups to increase and enhance the vibrancy of the great Pasadena tech and start-up community. We have a cross section of interested innovators (investors, entrepreneurs, programmers, CTO’s, VC’s, angels, etc) who are eager to more actively engage with other members of our local community. These sessions occur every Friday from 8:15am to 9:30am and are informal. We typically have a short structured presentation on a specific topic or do a deeper dive on a local company. All interested parties are welcome to attend.
