What if you could:
- Know what was happening inside government?
- Know what people were working on?- Know how money was being spent?
- Help people inside government do their jobs?
Jennifer Bell from VisibleGovernment.ca is our speaker for January and will be presenting on the topic of online tools for government transparency.
This presentation will demonstrate examples from around the world of how government data, published in open, structured formats, can improve the quality of society. Insight into VisibleGovernment.ca's pilot projects in Canada will be covered and details provided on how you get involved.
Jennifer has a background in launching software start-ups. She was recently on the seed management team of Tungle Corp., named one of Canada's top web 2.0 startups to watch. Prior to that she was a software developer, architect and product manager for Nimcat Networks, which was sold in 2004 for $43M.
