TechCongress
TechCongress is a startup non-profit, incubated at the Open Technology Institute at New America. The organization aims to bridge the gap between the government and the technology community. It is nonpartisan and works with a diverse set of political voices, without taking positions on issues. Demand Progress is building a new generation of technology leaders, and supports its staff and fellows with professional development, networking, and freedom to tinker and test new ideas. Above all, the program is vigilantly focused on adding value — to our people, our institutions and our society.
TechCongress also places computer scientists, engineers, and other technologists to serve as technology policy advisors to Members of Congress in the House and Senate through its one-year Congressional Innovation Fellowship.
