“I’m excited to speak alongside these incredible women and share how we
use data to inform decisions at The Meet Group,” said Catherine Cook
Connelly, VP of Brand Strategy for The Meet Group. “Though it is
impossible to have all of the data we want, our goal is to track
everything we can to improve and monitor retention, engagement, and user
acquisition efforts.”

The Philly New Technology Meetup supports the vibrant and growing
Philadelphia tech community by helping to build a sustainable technology
industry that drives innovation, economic growth, and creates positive
change for our local communities. This innovative talk will explore how
the panelists entered into the data profession, what types of data
technology they currently use in their positions, and how the impact of
cultural and gender-based issues have affected their careers.

The speakers are women, but the program is for everyone in tech and
data. The event is free and open to the public. For more information,
