In an era where technology shapes nearly every part of our lives, how can it also strengthen our democracy & enable more representative outcomes for complex issues like climate change?
Join us for a conversation with Kayla Huang, Co-Founder & CTO of Sway, on reimagining how people organize their electoral power in the digital age. At Sway, Kayla & her team are building the internet infrastructure for group voting-a new protocol for collective influence that allows everyday people to act together with the same coordination & civic impact once reserved for institutions & billionaires.
