Open Data, The Cleveland Civic Tech + Open Data Collaborative is presenting

at improving the Northeast Ohio data, technology and civic ecosystem. 

 

In partnership with the HIMSS Innovation Center, EDSI, DigitalC, the
Cleveland Foundation, Microsoft, Cleveland City Council and others, the 3
days will be consist of the following events. 

 

Thursday, March 2nd, also known as "CTRL" will feature a day long symposium
focused on existing data use, institutional tools and training. Providing
hands-on data and skills training for area nonprofits, community members,
and students, attendees will learn how to use our community's data resources
and hone your data-focused skills and practices. Presentations by the US
Census Bureau, Microsoft, the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland, CWRU's
Center on Urban Poverty and Community Development (NEO CANDO), and other
data-smart, civic-focused Northeast Ohio organizations. 

 

Thursday evening at 5:30pm, The Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland will host
the Re:Boot Reception. All attendees are invited to join us as we celebrate
the kick-off of Data Days in the beautiful lobby of the Federal Reserve Bank
of Cleveland. Space is limited, pre-registration and a photo ID are required
for entry. Registration (for this event only) will close February 24th at
12pm. 

 

The morning of Friday, March 3rd, also known as "ALT" will feature a keynote
address and forum with Aneesh Chopra, President of NavHealth, author of
Innovative State and the first Chief Technology Officer of the United States
of America appointed under President Barack Obama. Aimed at civic activists,
as well as institutional and government leaders, "ALT" is an exploration of
the use of open federal, state, and local government data and civic
engagement. The forum will feature a local perspective alongside Aneesh
representing how communities properly enable handshakes among stakeholders
and handoffs to civic innovators to better serve communities. 

 

Saturday, March 4th, also known as "CLE", is an attendee driven day
exploring civic tech and open data. A day of inclusivity and citizen access,
attendees set the agenda. 'CLE' will cap off Data Days in true un/conference

users alike will convene and facilitate conversations of their choosing.
Lighting speakers will be scheduled to share motivating and impassioned
stories around the use of technology and data as a means for progress.
