At our next meetup, we will be discussing persuasive technology with Yifan Zhang from Pact Health. Pact Health gets you exercising and eating healthy by using behavioral economics and financial incentives. Come learn how they use persuasive technology to drive up fitness and drive down deductibles. We will discuss behavioral economics & design, the uses of persuasive technology, and Yifan will explain how Pact Health designs for behavior change in its Pact App. All are welcome!

She has been featured on Bloomberg TV, Entrepreneur Magazine, CNBC and Kiplinger's, and was previously named "Boston's Most Impressive New CEO" by The Boston Globe.
