Open Source Technology and The Future of Civic Tech

by Liz Tupper | at Minnebar 19 | 3:50 – 4:30 in Bde Maka Ska | View Schedule

It's important to acknowledge that the landscape of government tech is shifting rapidly, and what worked in January 2024 might look different today. However, one thing remains the same, software development powered by community and for community is essential.

This talk will energize attendees by highlighting the far-reaching benefits of open data and open source contributions and showing how even small steps can lead to big changes. You will hear details about the Minnesota Digital Services Hackathon happening in October and how you can get involved.

Our journey began on January 26, 2024, soon after we soft-launched at Minnebar in 2024, and one of our main goals for 2025 is to host a civic government hackathon.
