Not long after QuJam was acquired by advertising agency Blink to provide another arrow in its quiver of marketing solutions. Hit PLAY to learn how Jeff successfully launched QuJam and how it is now playing a driving role at Blink. Produced by the Pittsburgh Technology Council, this is a podcast for tech and manufacturing  entrepreneurs exploring the tech ecosystem, from cyber security and AI to SaaS, robotics, and life sciences, featuring insights to satisfy the tech curious.
