At a collection of venues around the city next week, start up entrepreneurs, techies, and innovators of all stripes will get together to swap ideas and know-how for the second annual Tech Week "unconference."

NOLA Tech Week starts on Monday. It's the second year for the citywide event, which bills itself as a "celebration of all things tech.”

These days, New Orleans is making a name for itself as the place to be for technology start-ups — it was recently called the "most improved city for business” by the Wall Street Journal, and Forbes says it’s the number-three city for information technology job growth.

Enter NOLA Tech Week. At a collection of venues around the city next week, start up entrepreneurs, techies, and innovators of all stripes will get together to swap ideas and know-how.

One of the founders of NOLA Tech Week, Jason Seidman, visited WWNO to talk about the event.

Innovation and Technology reporting on WWNO is supported by Bellwether Technologies.
