Hi Lisa. We at Open Government TV have always knew that Collaboration is the nexus to participation.
Please know we are a huge fan of collaboration and want every opportunity to help government promote collaboration as this will require a sea change within government. Thanks for Steppin out of the Boat and into the Ring.
