Plans are currently underway for the 3rd annual Tech Policy Summit, which will be held next March in the San Francisco Bay Area. Join our mailing list to be notified as soon as the dates and venue are announced

Tech Policy Summit is the only executive conference of its kind that brings together prominent leaders from the private and public sectors to examine critical policy issues impacting technology innovation and adoption in the United States and beyond.  

The nonpartisan gathering provides an independent, balanced forum for learning and networking among an exclusive group of industry insiders, government officials, nonprofit leaders and academic experts who may have different perspectives but who share a common goal of enabling innovation.

Our mission is to bridge the gaps that sometimes exist – even between like-minded organizations with common goals – and to encourage more dialog so that there is greater accord between what happens in D.C. and what matters within the technology industry.

Tech Policy Summit '08 took place March 26th through 28th at the Renaissance hotel in Hollywood, CA.  You can learn more about the 2008 agenda, speakers, sponsors  and media coverage here. You can also find photos and podcasts from this year's conference at our TechPolicyCentral.com site.

The theme for the 2008 Summit was Markets in Transition: Collaborating to Drive Technology Innovation and Adoption, and sessions focused on America's competitiveness in the global economy and the growing impact of convergence on the high tech, digital entertainment and communications industries.

BusinessWeek technology columnist Steve Wildstrom was the emcee for the 2008 Summit, and other renowned journalists including  Kara Swisher of The Wall Street Journal's AllThingsD.com and Kai Ryssdal of the Marketplace radio show participated as session hosts.

Stay tuned for more info on the 2009 Summit, and contact us if you're interested in speaking or sponsorship opportunities.
