David Griffith and Jeff Ridgel to discuss “Working as a Tech Professional in Truckee”

Silicon Mountain, a networking group of technology professionals in
the Tahoe-Truckee region, will have its next meeting from 6-8 pm on
Monday October 10 at Tahoe Donner's Pizza on the Hill at 11509
Northwoods Blvd.

What should the future of working in Truckee look like? David
Griffith, Redevelopment and Housing Coordinator, Town of Truckee, and
Jeff Ridgel, CEO of Office BOSS will discuss their perspectives with
the Silicon Mountain Group. Ridgel is evaluating options for creating
a shared workspace for professionals in Truckee. “I’m looking forward
to finding out what the key requirements of tech workers are: Is it
high and reliable bandwidth? How important are other factors?”
Attracting highly qualified people to work and live in Truckee
intrigues Griffith as a way to create new employment opportunities.

Before and after the discussion, there will also be time for
networking with other technology people who live and work in the
Tahoe-Truckee region.

The meeting is sponsored by Truckee-based creative and technical
services company New Leaders.
Dinner will be $5, which includes pizza, salad, and soda. For more
