We’ve been very fortunate to be a CityCamp partner and contribute to bringing community-focused events centered around civic tech innovation to Gainesville!
So, what is CityCamp? It’s a community-led UNconference where residents, students, technologists, and civic leaders set the agenda together. Attendees come up with their own session ideas day-of and participants vote on what they want to do and disucss. CityCamp events have been hosted in cities across the world over the years.
Last year, we planned and hosted a successful UNconference, allying with student and volunteer organizations to discuss and take action on a number of pressing technological issues, of which a recap can be found here!

Finally, if events like this pique your interest, we’d love to invite you to do CityCamp locally! Check out what events might be going on in cities near you, or organize one yourself, at this page!
