The Playbooks

Everything we learn running events ships as something you can pick up and run without us in the room. One playbook is live and the next is being written from build night feedback.

Our events generate methods. We document them so any organizer, sponsor, or agency can reuse them without us in the room.

Event Playbook
A run-anywhere guide to hosting a civic tech build night, built from what we learned running our own: run of show, space and judging logistics, partners, and problem statement design. We are collating build night feedback into the first draft now.
Stay in the loop on state capacity events and tools.
