Aaron Dignan - Insights on Making Ideas Happen

kristinkoeleman — 2015-01-26 17:42:39 UTC

Aaron was our first Keynote speaker at TechKnowledge. Aaron is a founding partner of the digital strategy firm Undercurrent. I liked so many things about his talk - especially how he explained that you don't have to start from "scratch" to create something amazing - leverage other people's ideas and build from there. I also enjoyed his explanation of how ants run the perfect business.
