SEE EVENT DETAILS
at Northwestern University San Francisco
(see times)
Back in 1993, who knew that the internet and digital technology would create massive fortunes and change the way we all communicate, think and dream?
Jane Metcalfe did. She and her partner, Louis Rossetto, saw the coming Digital Revolution and founded WIRED magazine to chronicle the adventure.
Join the first Northwestern Medill Media Mixer at the new Northwestern SF campus for a conversation with Jane, led by Hayley Nelson, general manager of NewCo. Hear first-hand from one of today's most visionary media entrepreneurs and learn about her next venture, NEO.LIFE, covering the neo-biological revolution.
Jane's appearance kicks off the first Northwestern Medill Media Mixer, a monthly networking event for professionals interested in media innovation and entrepreneurship, from professional journalists to content marketers to founders of media startups.
Event features complimentary cocktails, beer, wine and appetizers from 6 - 7 pm. Discussion begins promptly at 7 pm.
