A collaboration with Spot.Us to investigate elite social networks surrounding the biggest corporations in the SF Bay Area.
The Project:
We're launching an investigation of the elite social networks surrounding the biggest corporations in the San Francisco Bay Area. Using LittleSis as a research tool, we will create an interactive database detailing the channels of money and influence that sustain these companies and tie them together. Check out our current initiatives here and here. To fund this project, we've formed a partnership with Spot.us, an open source project to pioneer community funded reporting in the Bay Area.
