Personal Democracy Forum is the world’s leading conference exploring and analyzing technology's impact on politics and government. |
For six years, PdF has attracted thought leaders and the most connected, driven people in the industry to come together and learn.
Join us in New York on June 3rd and 4th and take part in the conversations that are driving real changes in technology, governance, and the non-profit world.
"The gathering may have been the highest concentration of amazingly creative and concerned global citizens I have ever been around. There were lots of people saying, 'So I did this, this, and this, and now I’m working on doing this, this, and this and we should collaborate ...' They were all continually trying to use the new technologies to serve human purposes. In other words, it was my kind of crowd."
