Come join us for a discussion on Open Data at the Business Lounge on the international open data day, this Saturday, 3rd December, from 9 am to 1 pm. Kenya is the first Country in sub-Saharan Africa and only the second in Africa to launch an open data portal. The opportunity for citizen engagement, government efficiency and for the developer community is huge. How can we take advantage of this opportunity? Come and:
- Learn more about open data. - Find out how your local and national government could do more to release open data. - Engage local non-profits and companies in the uses of open data for the products and missions - Meet & network with tons of cool people in Nairobi - Voice your opinion & share your ideas with the people and media attending. - Find out about apps being created, and get to play around with them as well. - Help out with parts of the conceptualization, creation, design, advertisement and testing of apps. - Conduct an open tutorial sessions around using open data,like learning how to customize google maps to show the data you want to show. - Have lots and lots of fun.
Thanks!
