(firmenpresse) - Kansas City – People looking to bring change in Kansas City are invited to attend CityCampKC 2014 at The Kauffman Foundation – The center for entrepreneurship on Saturday, May 31st.
CityCampKC in partnership with Connecting for Good are hosting this year’s National Day of Civic Hacking – a content-a-thon that will help increase the digital literacy among underprivileged people or senior citizens.

Those who are interested to speak can sign up in the morning when they arrive.
The event will have discussions; panels and rapid fire ignite talks along with big data fun via BigData KC (the global conference held November 2013) and new technology and electronic gizmos created by the makers of Hammerspace
Anybody throughout the metro area looking to bring change in the community can participate in the event that is expected to be attended by over 300 techies and entrepreneurs, local government official staff, community organizers, civic makers, hackers and doers, students and professors, urban planners, designers, architects, developers or any resident who would like to enhance Kansas City.
