#JoinedUp — Celebrating Unity Between Australia and Boston

Last week, our team was honored to host a delegation from Australia to explore best practices in technology, city management, and innovation. Through visits to District Hall, MassChallenge, the Museum of Science, and more, we were able to share our pride in Cambridge and Boston and how we are working together as two cities in innovation.

We’ve gathered some of the best tweets from the visit below:
