Virtual shift for tech conference

Synapse Florida, a Tampa-based nonprofit dedicated to fostering the state’s “innovation economy,” is known for large-scale, well-attended events including the annual Synapse Summit at Amalie Arena, home of the Tampa Bay Lightning, in downtown Tampa. 

But with the COVID-19 crisis completely altering the way business networking is done, the organization has decided to embrace virtual meetings for its next event, Synapse Converge. It's scheduled to take place June 9-11 in, well, your home — or wherever you attend online meetings these days.
