Propeller Fest

I recently had the opportunity to attend the first ever Propeller Fest in New York and let's just say I propelled my way through this awesome tech, music and startup festival

Propeller Fest prides itself on creating a like-minded community of entrepreneurs. It's main mantra is "Idle ideas don't fly". The three pillars of the festival are inspiration, education and fun. From startup pitches to drone competitions to live bands - this festival is truly spectacular!

Here is an overview of the festival
