As an ESA WorkTech StartUp Advisor there is no obligation beyond offering feedback to mid-stage and late-stage WorkTech StartUp companies who are ready to scale. This is your opportunity to not only know about new Tech before others, but also help accelerate the growth of these StartUp companies by providing targeted feedback on their offering. Feedback is the most important thing you can do for these startups. In addition, you will gain insights on how these Next Gen WorkTech solutions are rapidly driving aspects of the Future of Work and influencing Culture, Technology and Talent.
