New Voices is a series of original articles and opinion pieces published on Tech Policy Press each month in collaboration with the Aspen Tech Policy Hub, a West Coast policy incubator training a new generation of tech policy entrepreneurs. Modeled after tech incubators like Y Combinator, the Hub takes tech experts, teaches them the policy process through fellowship and executive education programs in the Bay Area, and encourages them to develop outside-the-box solutions to society’s problems.
