We believe collaboration is the key to solving pressing issues and unlocking new solutions, and are excited to bring this event to the Bay Area to engage with the brightest minds in the industry,” said Justin Coffey, Senior Staff Development Lead, Criteo. “In addition, we are inspired by how this community rallies behind organizations like Techfugees to solve international challenges and are proud to raise awareness for this forward-thinking nonprofit organization.”
