2015 was a year of growth and change for all of us. As we welcomed new ventures into the New York tech scene, we were reminded every day why civic technology is so important. Thanks to our great partnerships, dedicated staff, and driven city, 2015 was one of our most successful years yet. We’d like to thank everyone who was there every step of the way!
Here are some of our favorite blogs of the year, highlighting special moments, special people, and the hard work that goes into civic tech every day:
