Quick recap until I have time to come back and write more — for now:
- Funded by the Knight Foundations
- Sponsors including Eventbrite, Tumblr, Ustream
- $150k raised/sold
- Hosted 1,000 visiting media to the 2012 DNC with The PPL, a 20k sq. ft. co-working space, and welcomed policy leaders including Chuck Schumer, Rahm Emanuel, and Howard Dean
- Produced a week-long live-broadcasted event series in partnership with Ustream that attracted 50k viewers, and featured thought leaders from tech (Twitter, Facebook, Google) and nonprofits/NGOs (Startup America, AFT, SEUI)
- Site is very old but we’re trying to keep it alive
