Center City District wants to make Philly more friendly to freelancers

Center City District wants to make Philly a better place for independent contractors.
Backed by a $137,000 Knight Foundation grant, the organization is collecting data to figure out what freelancers want, how to keep them here and how to attract more. They also hope “to increase demand for business and work place uses for the upper floors of buildings,” wrote spokeswoman Casandra Dominguez.
They launched a short survey last week. (Take the survey and you could win an iPad.)

Center City District is also researching the freelance economies of Charlotte and Milwaukee as part of the Knight grant.
On the topic of surveys, don’t miss the results from our startup CEO survey, which spanned the Northeast Corridor.
