The Netroots Nation Convention is happening in Baltimore this summer (July 11-13) and we are bringing back one of our most popular events, the New Tools Showcase. This annual competition is a chance to (re)introduce your voting, campaigning or make-the-world-a-better-place technology solution to the progressive community.
Got a product, app, or feature you want to tell the world about? Visit https://netrootsnation.secure-platform.com/nn24-nts/solicitations/102004/home to submit a pitch. (Submission deadline is tomorrow!)
The New Tools Showcase highlights cutting-edge technology that helps build power and engagement within the political process. It's also a chance for the leaders developing these tools to tell the inside stories of how their products are being designed and built—and to highlight their impact on our collective work and communities.
During the showcase, which will happen in Baltimore during #NN24, selected presenters will make a live pitch to our in-person audience. Attendees will vote on their favorite new tool, new feature or product (for established companies rolling out new features/products), and most innovative use of existing technology. They will also select an overall winner. Winners will be announced at the end of the New Tools Showcase.
If you'd like to submit your product or technology for consideration for the showcase, you can click here. Don’t wait! Applications close TOMORROW on April 16 at 8pm EDT. Finalists will be announced at the beginning of May.
And thank you to New Media Ventures and Higher Ground Labs for their partnership and work to make this happen.
