Gdje ćete se zaposliti u hrvatskoj digitalnoj ekonomiji u 2018. - zašto i kako?

Kao glavni urednik Netokracije, Ivan već godinama prati razvoj hrvatske tehnološke scene koja se drastično promijenila. Brzorastući startupi realni su poslodavci, a marketinške agencije zapošljavaju sve više IT stručnjaka. Ivan ekskluzivno na Dump Daysima predstavlja pregled hrvatske tehnološke scene po pitanju poslodavaca za studente, ali i sve ostale koji se u njoj žele zaposliti.

How We Created The Largest Tech Blog in The Balkans

Netokracija's founder and editor-in-chief tells the story of entrepreneurship in (vertical) media and - against all odds - creating a resource for not just the digital industry - but the digital economy as well!
