Program
The program of this meeting is currently open to participation: the organization is calling for organizations, researchers, civil society and governments to register, become part of the Sharing Cities ecosystem and join the conversations on the economic models of the future. Participants who wish to take part can register to present their project in the Exhibition area; they can propose talks, debates, or round tables in the Open Forum area; or they can even dynamize workshops and group activities in the Hacking Area. More information on how to get involved.
The call for participation is now for the second phase, which will end on 27 September. The first call has already collected 40 international and local proposals, and it is expected that during the second wave other projects that want to be at the epicenter on the conversations of the Platform Economy will be registered. All projects that want to participate must register in this form.
