Vermont Regional Health Forum Comes to Burlington 

By

6a00d83451b91969e2011168fdb7b8970c-pi.jpg
Governor Jim Douglas and Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick are hosting a forum on health care up at UVM today. The forum itself is invitation-only, and it starts at 1 p.m.

There's a rally in progress up at UVM as I type this.

The photo is from Shay Totten, who's on the scene with Seven Days reporter Mike Ives. Both of them are posting updates to Twitter — click here to follow them.

Here's a sample of what they've posted so far:

ShayTotten: Don at Small Dog says health care coverage needs to be decoupled from employment so folks aren't stuck on dead end jobs for benefits #vtrhf

 ShayTotten: Dr. Marvin Malek - former VT Lt. Gov. candidate - shares with crowd the list used by insurance companies to deny claims #vtrhf
They'll have more comprehensive updates when they return, but for now, you can follow along here.

    Social Sentinel, a Burlington-based company that identifies threatening content on social media, was among the winners of the 2018 Tech Jam awards, presented last Friday at the 12th Vermont Tech Jam. The prizes, given annually by the Vermont Technology Alliance, BTV Ignite and Seven Days, recognize leaders in the state's tech ecosystem. The awards ceremony was the culmination of a busy day at the free career and tech expo organized by Seven Days and presented by Vermont Works. Representatives from more than 50 companies and colleges talked with hundreds of attendees who walked the expo floor. Jeff Couture, executive director of the Vermont Technology Alliance, said he talked with job seekers from across Vermont and outside the state at the event, "including someone, suitcase in hand, who visited from North Carolina."
