What we’re about
We’re people who envision online platforms that share democratic ownership and governance among the people who rely on them, especially those who contribute their labor and personal data. Some of us lead businesses that carry these values, some of us are considering starting businesses or organizations, and some just want to support others in their efforts. All are welcome.
We may not have all the answers for how this can and should work, but we know that the only way to learn is by coming together and contributing to each other's efforts.
Each event is meant to gather people and share information towards democratization, ownership, and control over digital technology. Events have a clear theme and a guest that sets a foundation for that theme. We’ll spend a majority of the time talking with each other and sharing knowledge.

Mike and Austin will kick this group off, but will evolve it into a collaborative project. If you’re interested in stepping-up, message us and let us know!
