INSIDE OUT

Citizen Engagement is a hot topic and citizen engagement initiatives are popping up at federal, state and local government entities.  This webcast will take an in-depth look at two creative companies that engage members of the public with federal, state and local government in novel ways. This webcast will be a joint presentation by one of the founders of PopVox, a company that verifies, aggregates, and simplifies communication with Congress on an open and nonpartisan common ground, and Citizinvestor, a crowdfunding platform for local government projects.  Marci Davis of PopVox and Tony DeSisto of Citizinvestor will talk about their process for capturing and stimulating public engagement with an eye toward how aspects of their processes might be applicable across other areas of the government.
