Free, Public Event - An Evening with Jason Fried: 37signals Founder/CEO returns to Providence on Oct. 15
By Jack Templin

Co-hosted by the Business Innovation Factory and RI Nexus
Fresh from his appearance at the BIF-4 Summit, 37signals founder Jason Fried will join Rhode Island’s info-tech and digital media community at the Black Repertory Company in downtown Providence on October 15 at 6:30 pm for a free, public event.
The evening will feature an onstage interview with Jason, open Q&A and socializing. This is a unique opportunity for Rhode Island's info-tech and digital media community and Jason to get to know one another.

He spearheaded the concept, design and development of Basecamp, 37signals' web-based project management tool for designers, freelancers and creative services firms. Jason is a co-author of the bestselling and highly-influential book, “Getting Real: The Smarter, Faster, Easier Way to Build a Successful Web Application,” as well as of the popular blog, Signal vs. Noise.
Many thanks to the Business Innovation Factory for facilitating Jason's visit to Rhode Island and for making this event possible.
