Description

A TechSoup Talk with Tech Impact CEO Patrick Callihan and Marnie Webb

 

About This Event

Every nonprofit organization—from a local youth league to a global humanitarian group—deserves a digital backbone that is as strong as a well-funded startup. While many nonprofits don't think they need a Chief Technology Officer (CTO), they deserve one. Even without this dedicated leadership, teams have continued to drive important work because they refused to give up on the communities they support.

Join Patrick Callihan, CEO of Tech Impact, and Marnie Webb, CEO of TechSoup, for a conversation on why the nonprofit sector needs high-level technology leadership. They will discuss the practical necessity of a CTO to maintain infrastructure, lower costs, and ensure that an organization’s technology roadmap is fully aligned with its mission.
