You read Technical.ly Brooklyn. You love cities. You love the possibilities they represent.
Now’s your chance to get more involved.
Last year, we at Technical.ly hosted our first-ever Rise Conference: a two-day event in Philadelphia focused on civic innovation and how leaders both within and outside government are changing the cities they call home.
More than 35 speakers, over 100 attendees, eight break-out sessions and a keynote presentation by Forbes editor Randall Lane made for a diverse and vibrant event. Read our full recap of the Rise 2014 here.
And this year, Rise will be even bigger.
The theme is “The Future of City.” The date is Dec. 3-4. The speakers are civic innovators, city officials, community leaders and more.
We’ll talk about where cities should be in five, 10, 50 years — and how we get there.
Join us in Philadelphia for the two-day conference. We have discounted Amtrak tickets and special hotel group rates for those coming from out of town.
