From EventBrite:

Take an idea to change the city as far as you can in 48 hours. Then bring your prototype to government and make it a reality. Welcome to Democracy 3.0.

A hackathon for everyone…where your work will be seen by the next mayor, and you can win a research residency and other prizes!

The best solutions always emerge from diverse minds coming together to solve common problems. That’s why we’re inviting the Bay Area’s best urbanists, artists, journalists, scientists, communicators, business and civic minds, and more to join leading developers and designers in prototyping and building ways to improve life for all citizens of San Francisco – and eventually, beyond. (Who Should Attend) List your skillsets and areas of expertise in your registration, and check out what types of people you’ll be working with in the attendee list.
