50+ Government leaders, 2 days, 1 city: What Happened at the SeeClickFix User Summit 2016.
More than fifty government leaders from across the country gathered in New Haven, CT for the SeeClickFix User Summit 2016.
SeeClickFix has always been about connecting governments with the citizens that they serve. As the SeeClickFix network has exploded to include over 300 municipal and county partners, however, we’ve also seen the incredible value of this network of government leaders connecting with each other too.
That’s why we organized the SeeClickFix User Summit. To provide an opportunity for our partners to come together in the same room to connect, build, and grow — together.
Here’s a highlight reel of an epic two days:
We had inspiring keynotes.
Micah Sifry, democracy activist and founder of Civic Hall, kicked the Summit off with a keynote entitled “Charles Dickens, America’s Invisible Third Party and the Tech We Need”.
