BECOME AN sf.citi MEMBER TODAY

As a member of sf.citi, you’ll join a coalition of tech companies committed to shaping the tech policy landscape of San Francisco.  

We represent San Francisco tech companies in conversation with local policymakers. We organize volunteer opportunities and social impact partnerships for tech companies and their employees to serve the San Francisco community. We connect our members at events with government and community leaders to discuss the most pressing issues facing tech and San Francisco. Most importantly, we take a “One City” approach to everything we do by driving continuous dialogue between San Francisco’s tech, nonprofit, and political sectors.
