Ideas and Values

Pop!Tech’s community is eclectic – intellectually, creatively, politically and culturally. But we do share some common values.

The folks who both produce and participate in Pop!Tech passionately believe:

• That individuals and small groups have the power to shape the future
• That all of us together are smarter than any of us alone
• That good ideas should trump ideologies – whether on the Left or Right
• That robust debate is the sign of a community’s health
• That tomorrow will be more surprising than today
• That progress is possible.

Each year, Pop!Tech convenes with these values in mind.
