Clémence Pène

Thank you Stephan I’m going to continue speaking in French for the moment. My name is Clémence Pène and this is the director of La Netscouade Matthieu Lerondeau. Together we organize the Personal Democracy Forum (PDF) in France, a conference that’s taken place for the last 5 years. It’s an American conference that’s organized in New York each year in June that’s been running for about 10 years. I’d like to let you know it’s a conference with people who still believe that the Internet can change the world and in fact in 2016 I have the feeling that in Civic Tech this belief is becoming quite fashionable once again.

As far as this is concerned we will meet you on the 10th of June at the Gaîté Lyrique for the yearly conference of PDF France and this evening we’re going to launch a call for pitches. For the first time we’re going to pitch Civic Tech startups. So thank you very much to SuperPublic!
