Logictry, a notable SaaS tech firm in Austin, was selected as one of three official representatives for the United States to hold virtual sessions for the United Nations’ World Logic Day on January 14. Logictry is launching the first-ever social platform built for logic to allow subject matter experts and logicians to build no-code logic apps that lead to better decision making.
World Logic Day is hosted by the UN, The International Council for Philosophy and Humanistic Studies (CIPSH), and The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) annually to help demonstrate the importance of logic in helping advance the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and World Peace.
The goal is to create a more peaceful world through the use of logic. The company hosted a series of panels for the day featuring leading entrepreneurs, impact investors, philanthropists, venture capitalists, logicians, advocates, country/state representatives, and various award-winning community leaders from around the world.
The conversations included Climate Innovation Through Logic; Gender Equality, Entrepreneurship, & Women Advancing; Forbes Next 1,000 Panels; Quality Education & Logical Innovation; Crypto as a Peaceful Revolution, and more.
James Lane Post co-publisher Christine Prydatko hosted a panel on “The Role of Women in Logic – Media & Fashion,” featuring Shannon Bland, owner at the Scout Guide; Lori Sussle Bonanni, founder of elssus, LLC; Syama Meagher, CEO of Scaling Retail; and Jag Gill, founder & CEO of Sundar, Inc. (a techstars company).
James Lane Post co-publisher and editor Jessica Mackin-Cipro — filling in for Jaclynn Brennan, Forbes 2021 Next 1000 Member and co-founder of Fyli — moderated the Forbes Next 1000 panel “Gender Equity, Building Logic Communities, & the Advancement of Women,” featuring Andra Liemandt, founder and CEO of The Kindness Campaign, Nike Anani, co-founder of African Family Firms, and Janice Omadeke, CEO and founder of the Mentor Method.
Logictry’s CEO and CLO, Chris Fronda, stated, “We are excited about our partnership with the UN, UN SDSN, UN SDSN Youth, NOVA Impact, the CIPSH, & UNESCO in celebrating this day that is so important in encouraging dialogue and understanding between people from all over the world.”
The United Nations Sustainable Development Solutions Network (UN SDSN), launched in 2012 under the direction of the United Nations’ Secretary General to mobilize global scientific and technological expertise in promoting practical solutions for sustainable development. This initiative included the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the Paris Climate Agreement. SDSN works closely with United Nations agencies, multilateral financing institutions, the private sector, and civil society.
“The NOVA Impact Leadership Team and community is honored to have been chosen to participate in this special day and to lead alongside Logictry in maximizing the UN’s logic initiatives. We are passionate about providing tangible solutions to some of the world’s most pressing challenges and know that World Logic Day is a great supporter of these initiatives and the UN’s SDGs,” said Chelsea Toler and Olivia Dell, the co-founders of NOVA Impact, in a joint statement.
