OpenNY Summit, Dec 11 & 12.

[noel hidalgo]

Information is the key to government. Since the NYT is at the
forefront of developing data structures everyone can use, we thought
it would be great to have the best and the brightest join us. If
you're around on Dec 11 & 12, we would love for you to attend the
OpenNY Summit. - Noel

The Open Planning Project and the OpenNY Forum invite you to The
OpenNY Summit, a two day event (Dec 11th & 12th) to improve civic
engagement and advance open governance through the development of
participatory processes and technology.

New York boasts a diverse and creative population with national and
global influence. It is home to many efforts to coordinate solutions
and develop technology for a more transparent governance processes and
participatory civic life in New York city and state. The Open NY
Summit is a venue to bring these efforts together to explore and
address challenges and opportunities presented to the delivery of
public services and operation of government offices.

This summit is being coordinated simultaneously with other events
throughout the country by The Sunlight Foundation, a national leader
in applying cutting edge technology to make government transparent and
accountable.

All NY metro area Geeks and GovGeeks are invited for two bug free days
dedicated to building New York's future - register today at <
http://OpenNYForum.org >.

Starting Friday, Dec 11, at 10 AM we will Co-work/"Jelly" and at 4 PM
host a moderated discussion on transparency issues and solutions.
We'll end the night with some snappy presentations and a not to be
missed Happy Hour/OpenGov celebration.

To further unpack the future, on Saturday, Dec 12, we will host the
Summit's unconference answering questions like:
- Do you have a problem that a GovGeek can help solve?
- Got a project and looking for collaborators?
- Toiling away in your Agency and need a breather with like minded geeks?
- Wanna give a short talk on your vision for an Open NY?
- Want to help run a workshop?
