About Event

Join us for our first Fourth Wednesday at the UW Tech Exploration Lab — an informal evening of conversation, creativity, and community.

Students, alumni, industry partners, and campus collaborators are all welcome. Stop by, grab a slice, meet new people, and see what students are building. We’ll have a few live demos in the room and plenty of space for spontaneous idea-sharing.

Guest Speaker: Matt Spalter (UW Alum)
Matt will share his journey from UW–Madison to leading roles at Google, Waze, and X (The Moonshot Factory), and his experience scaling global partnerships and high-growth teams. Following his remarks, we’ll transition into networking and community conversations.
