g0v, Taiwan's Civic Tech Community

with Patrick Connolly

Speakers

Patrick Connolly

Patrick Connolly is a community organizer, a coder, a failed biochemist, and an anarchist sympathizer. He is interested in participatory culture, the changing nature of work, and how we can build communities, organizations and economies that are more open, inclusive, and resilient.

Come help us chip away at civic problems by combining technology with the power of our community. We’ve got everything you need for a perfect Tuesday night: a presentation to learn from, some projects to work on, and pizza (or other food) to snack on!
