Community Building, Safe Spaces & Aginext

Season 1, Ep. 6
•

On this show I am joined by Jen Riggins (JKRiggins for those who are twitterers) who describes herself as a Tech Storyteller writer, podcast host and community organiser. She is out there doing the work to share the stories where culture and technology collide and to translate the impact of this future we are building. She has been a working writer since 2003 -- and an accidental community builder for even longer. Currently in London, Jennifer is the tech culture correspondent for The New Stack, co-organizer of the Aginext community event series, co-host of the podcast What We Talk About When We Talk About Tech, and somehow runs an ever-growing local parents community.


In this episode we talk a bit about communities, safe spaces and the upcoming Aginext Conference (where yours truly is on the agenda).
