In May 2021, Technical.ly focused extra reporting on community-minded tech development, digital access issues, the ethics of advanced technology and the like. In this reporting series, find check-ins on early-pandemic open data projects (especially those featured in Healthcare Technologies Month of April 2020), profiles of technologists working in civic tech or local government, features on companies developing products to advance a social mission, and stories on social entrepreneurship trends.
