Translated: We, "Civic Tech Saitama," also want to make use of the knowledge and wisdom of "Ichi-dwellers" living in Saitama City to create services necessary for the region and make public services easy to use. To that end, we will make it possible for governments and companies to provide the data and resources necessary for creating services, create a place where various people can gather, and make us "Civic Tech" interesting.
