Good Tech Fest Podcast: Recent Episodes
Andrew Means
Data and technology are changing the way we travel, collaborate, communicate, entertain ourselves, and our politics. At Good Tech Fest we believe data and technology can change the way we deliver impact too. Far too often impact oriented organizations focus on using data and technology to manage the organization but not the organization’s impact. We seek to change that.
