We we're pumped to check out the first day of the LightCityU Social Innovation Conference today at the Columbus Center. Awesome panels with Rich May from Innovation Village, Rodney Foxworth and Michelle Geiss from Impact Hub, B Cole from Brioxy, Laurin Hodge of Mission:Launch, Fagan Harris of BaltimoreCorps, author Wes Moore of BridgeEdU...the list goes on...And we finally had a chance to meet our social media friends from Good News Baltimore, in person. Plus a wonderful librarian we hope to meet again soon. It was a great day and now you have many links to explore.

Matt Williams, part of the Startup Soiree crew, held things down all day, from making sure you got your Pixilated photo badge when you walked in, to all sorts of of behind the scenes things we didn't notice thanks to his perfect execution, to ensuring everyone had enough Natty Boh's before listening to the last talk of the night. In between all of this, Matt graciously spent five minutes talking to us in the only quiet place we could find...an elevator shaft. This dude is wise beyond his years, very Bullish on Baltimore and all about community. So listen up as he discusses his take on the day and our city.
