Personal Democracy Forum

Since 2004, Personal Democracy Media has helped nurture a world-wide conversation about technology’s impact on government and politics, and society with a conference, Personal Democracy Forum (PDF), that takes place in New York every year.

This year, the conference comes to Italy for the first time. It will take place in Rome on September 29th. PDF Italia will focus on the impact of data on society and its consequences for all its actors, most of all on citizens.

PDF Italia will be part of Innovation Week, a week of debates, meetings and forums dedicated to the new frontiers in the digital revolution, with topics ranging from Open Hardware to Social Innovation and Democracy, from City Makers in the Collaborative Economy to Open Data and Impact Finance.

The highlight of the week will be the second edition of the European Maker Faire.
The Maker Faire is the largest exhibition in the world dedicated to the innovation, creativity and enterprise, an event for families and lovers of the “do it yourself” spirit but also the celebration of the Makers movement.

Innovation Week is promoted by the Chamber of Commerce in Rome and organized by its specialist Agency – Asset-Camera.
