Digest #225
I'd like to welcome our newest partner: Hayes Beffel & Wolfeld LLP, Intellectual Property Law. Thank you for your support, HBW!
I start some weeks without a clue about which stories I'll be sharing. Sometimes I wonder if I'll even have enough news for a digest. However, things generally fall into place. Last week -- feeding today's digest -- was one such week. As it turned out, International Women's Day on March 8 generated some interesting stories to share.
Here's the news you need to know.
Find out what Modern Tribe is doing to increase gender equality and inclusion. Check out two articles from Looker about Women of Data and Data of Women. Salinas is home to the Western Growers Center for Innovation & Technology. Many of the startups in WG-CIT's incubator are -- or will be -- movers and shakers in agtech. Find out what's new, and stay tuned for more in the future.
There's more so scroll down and start reading!
