Business Casual hosts Daniel Litwin and Tyler Kern check in with technology PR professional Ronjini Joshua for her perspective. Joshua is the Owner & President of The Silver Telegram, a PR agency focused on brand awareness, media relations & thought leadership for technology brands, specifically. She points out that a virtual experience may “allow us to be able to experience more of the show itself,” cutting out the fluff of travel time and walking the floor.
