Andrew Chambers
Founder of Pollee
Andrew has been writing, talking and presenting on the topic of democracy since 1985. Chambers recognised immediately the capacities for the Internet as a backbone to give voice to citizens and carry the votes to be counted toward a decision.
In 2001 Chambers (and a mate called Dave) ran in the Western Australian state elections under the #votedave banner, an early iteration of this Pollee process. Chambers subsequently also ran as a candidate for Online Direct Democracy Party (ODDP) and represented the interests of Democracy Earth Foundation as an “Ambassador”.
Professionally, Andrew is an Event Production Manager, Lighting Designer and has worked for many West Australian Festival organisations and Companies.
Chambers previously resided in Broome, Western Australia, now a local in Calista, WA.
Technology has always been on the arc and this is our push to achieve that aim.
Teams go nowhere without mates and I am blessed to share this journey with two such people:
Dr Alexander Hayes - designer, ethicist, artist, filmmaker, web magician, social actionist and my soundboard for so many ideas. Helping translate the many ideas into a coherent theme with focus.
