From the Organizers:
Local startup Civitech is creating software with the aim of making it easier for people to register to vote and get their friends and neighbors registered to vote. Their CEO Jeremy Smith has spoken at the EFF-Austin monthly meetup, and EFF-Austin board member and president Kevin Welch is a current employee. They are hosting monthly happy hours with the goal of outreach to other activist organizations in town. We are encouraging EFF-Austin members and followers to join us for November's happy hour - if you have opinions and ideas about how technology can be leveraged to increase civic participation, this would be a great event to come out to and have conversations with the technologists working in this space.
Visit EFF-Austin's event page for more information.
