Calling All Tech Demonstrators…

December 14, 2007 | 3:11 PM

The Congressional Internet Caucus wants your latest, greatest, coolest gadgets to display on Capitol Hill. The group has begun searching for innovators to set up demos at its 11th annual exhibition scheduled for Wednesday, Jan. 30.

The event kicks off the congressional session each year by showing off new and emerging technologies that illustrate the latest tech policy issues with interactive, hands-on demonstrations.

More than 600 lawmakers, staffers, reporters and government and private sector representatives are expected to attend. The exhibition will immediately follow a day of tech policy discussions at the caucus's annual State of the Net conference.

Last year's participating companies included Google, Kodak, Microsoft, MySpace, NBC-Universal and many more. Think you've got what it takes? Application materials are available here.
