“FredX wants to keep some of the 50,000+ technology-savvy commuters off I-95 and working here, close to their families, by creating a high-tech culture in the Fredericksburg region,” said FredXchange President Matt Norris. “As a three-year old non-profit focused on launching an entrepreneurial ecosystem in the region, we believed a forum focused on the topic of ‘Technology in the ‘Burg’ would make for an interesting and relevant event.”
To reserve tickets, visit Fredericksburg Mayoral and School Board Debate – Technology in the ‘Burg. There are 80 tickets available, and a waiting list will be established, Norris said.
The Foundry, launched by FredXchange in the fall of 2015, is the area’s only co-working space offering individuals and companies daily and month-to-month memberships for working in a collaborative environment.
