Tech startups aren't the only ones pivoting these days.

Some of the big guys are starting to think like a startup, too. This time, we're hearing from Philadelphia magazine, straight from the guy at the top.

Philadelphia magazine's president, David Lipson, Jr., will tell the story of how the magazine has failed... and continued to experiment and adapt, over and over and over. He'll talk about stepping out of a comfort zone, and discuss the difficulty of disrupting your established business model in order to help your business grow.

Is this a classic pivot on a large scale? What could startups learn from them, and vice versa? Come ready to discuss your socks off.

January 9
Craft brews at 6 pm. The president talks at 6:30 pm.
