Sh#t Happens: Disasters & Tech Meet Up
We’re bureaucrats-govies-public sector. You’re techies-geeks-start-ups. No matter what camp you’re in, we’re all into creating ideas that change the way we do things for the better. So, if you’re into developing game-changers for good, then we want to sync with you to create radical ideas that can transform how we respond to disasters—because when sh*t happens, we’re all in it together.
