Outdoor Speakers Series: Technology & Innovation in the Non-Profit World

Mindgrub had to kick off its Outdoor Speaker Series inside its Locust Point headquarters, thanks to Mother Nature’s chilly mood outside. The evening started with cocktails, networking…

…and gratifying grub from the Mindgrub Café.

Then it was time for the evening’s panel discussion on the subject of “Technology and Innovation in the Non-Profit World.”

Moderated by Brock Yetso, The Ulman Cancer Fund for Young Adults president/CEO (far right), the panel included: (LtoR) Brian Gaines, MdBio Foundation CEO; Tucker Lyons, Widespread Hope Foundation founder; Matt Hanna, Next One Up founder/executive director; Dr. Carlo DiClemente, UMBC Center for Community Collaboration director; and Ann Darrin, Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory Space Exploration Sector managing executive
