TechTeam, a Student Civic Engagement project of the University of Chicago Institute of Politics, seeks to support Chicago area community organizations and state and local government in using digital tools to create change. During the summer of 2013, TechTeam founders Erin Simpson and Olivia Myszkowski united around the belief that social and public sector organizations should not be the last to innovate. In January of the following year, the two added tech aficionado Jakub Tucholski to the team, reserved a room at the UChicago Institute of Politics -- and TechTeam was born. Ever since then, TechTeam has been pursuing its goal: bringing together government and community organizations and university students to use digital tools to create change.
