ORLANDO, Fla., July 26, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Hear My Voice (HMV), a civic engagement platform and mobile app, became more involved in the startup and political worlds by attending two big Florida events, The eMerge Americas Startup Showcase, and the Florida Association of Counties (FAC) annual conference. The Startup Showcase, which was held in Miami, FL, provided a unique platform for over 100 innovative startups from around the world to connect with hundreds of strategic investors and potential partners. The FAC conference brings Florida county officials together to develop new ways to serve Floridians.
"Attending eMerge was a very rewarding experience for Hear My Voice and we're thrilled that we were able to attend with the support of SeedInvest," said Becky Kip, Founder and CEO of HMV. "Not only was it a great opportunity to demonstrate our platform to potential investors, we also interacted with other startups and learned about their missions. As a startup ourselves, we value being a part of a community that strives for innovation and entrepreneurship."
The Florida Association of Counties conference is one of Florida's main events for connecting with elected officials in local politics. Thousands of elected officials, from commissioners to mayors, attend this event to learn new ways to better serve their constituents.
"Hear My Voice has grown to be much more than a platform for voters," continues Kip. "Now, elected officials can utilize the platform to get feedback on local issues impacting their communities and gage the sentiments of their constituents."
Hear My Voice plans to attend more Florida tech and political events in the near future. Kip and the rest of the HMV team hope to make more connections within those communities and continue to contribute to their missions.
Hear My Voice is available for free download on Google Play and the Apple App Store.
