OpenAccessPhilly: technology and innovation for an open, transparent, and participatory Philadelphia

Launched in August 2010, OpenAccessPhilly is a movement created around the intersection of innovation, technology, and civic participation in Philadelphia, PA. The project ecompasses components initiated by government as well as small and large companies, non-profits, grant making foundations, and organizations outside of Philadelphia. It focuses on the four tracks of civic participation, digital inclusion, free flow of information, and cultivation of the regional infotec economy. This panel discussion will feature speakers who will address this initiative from multiple perspectives.
