Our roundup of Switch Philly 3 during Philly Tech Week 2012 [Video]
We’re still excited by the numbers coming back from Philly Tech Week 2012: more than 10,000 attendees at 88 events across 8 days.
One of those events, hosted by Technically Philly, was the startup demo presentation event Switch Philly. Watch a recap of Switch above or in full-resolution at Vidder.
