The William Penn Foundation-funded news outfit unveiled a new name last week at a party held at its newish N3rd Street office [find some photos here]. The team continues to publish content at its old site, but sign up here to get the latest on AxisPhilly.org.
AxisPhilly manages OpenDataPhilly.org, which is in the works to be the city’s open data portal, as we reported today.
The organization currently has a staff of five and is still hiring.
Before you go...
To keep our site paywall-free, we’re launching a campaign to raise $25,000 by the end of the year. We believe information about entrepreneurs and tech should be accessible to everyone and your support helps make that happen, because journalism costs money.
Can we count on you? Your contribution to the Technical.ly Journalism Fund is tax-deductible.
