The UnConference provides a venue for participant-driven, flexible dialogue. The overall topics are technology that shapes cities, technology as economic engine, and technology for civic engagement. The content is the conversation that the participants want to have on these topics. Much of the day’s agenda is formulated onsite by attendees, who also create their own breakout sessions and work groups. Visit: http://unconference.planning.org for more information.
