Our weekly civic tech hacknights bring together designers, coders, urban planners, government staff, mappers, policy-makers, students, communications strategists, and all other Torontonians who share an interest in making Toronto more responsive, prosperous, sustainable and equitable, through design, tech, and data. (Coders are welcome, but you don’t have to be a coder to contribute!) Come and be part of it!

Notice: We have an attendance limit this month!
Our venue sponsor this month can only accommodate a maximum of 65 people.

That means that - unfortunately - some people may get turned away at the door.

Until 6:20, we will only be admitting people who have RSVP'd on Meetup.com (unless we hit the attendance limit before that).

If there is still room at 6:20, anyone who hasn't RSVP'd can get in until we hit the attendance limit.

Also, please note that you will be asked to sign in on your arrival.

Don't forget - there's always a live stream of the presentation, and you can collaborate with other CivicTech members on our Slack channel!

Agenda:

6:30-7: Welcome and intros
7-7:30: Presentation and Q&A/discussion
7:30-9: Breakout groups (make something!)

This venue is fully accessible.
