Seeking best practices: online communities and public communications. May 29, 2015. I need three speakers for a EuropCom2015 workshop to share their thoughts on convening and managing communities in the context of public communications and policymaking.

Autonomous vehicle technology is already well-tested and will be road-ready sooner rather than later,… » read more. Posted by Mathew Lowry. As BlogActiv's Launch Director,. Every day via a Con...
