October is rapidly approaching, and more than just autumn leaves are swirling in the air. New ideas and projects are, too. It’s an electric time of year for the tech industry, and we plan on upping the voltage even higher on October 3rd at FullConTech 2016.  

 

Here are four of the speakers who will be helping us do exactly that:
