Aspen is a place for leaders to lift their sights above the possessions which possess them. To confront their own nature as human beings, to regain control over their own humanity by becoming more self-aware, more self-correcting, and hence more self-fulfilling.
The Aspen Tech Policy Hub is a West Coast policy incubator, taking tech experts, teaching them the policy process through an in-residence fellowship program in the Bay Area, and encouraging them to develop outside-the-box solutions to society’s problems.We are excited to demonstrate the results of our inaugural cohort of fellows, showing off projects designed to help seniors navigate the internet, improve women’s prospects in the workforce, and encourage democracy itself. This interactive presentation will be followed by a wine and cheese reception celebrating the fellows. Aspen Institute President Dan Porterfield will introduce the event, and former US CTO Megan Smith will keynote.
