DEF member Frank Reyes discusses the TechCongress experience with Katherine Pratt and Nate Wilkins, digging into their work on The Hill, the upcoming cohort, and how it all overlaps with DEF's mission to promote a culture of innovation in the national security community. 


TechCongress is a startup non-profit, incubated at the Open Technology Institute at New America. They are nonpartisan and work with a diverse set of political voices, and do not take positions on issues. 


TechCongress focuses on building a new generation of technology leaders, and supporting fellows with professional development, networking, and freedom to tinker and test new ideas. TechCongress places computer scientists, engineers, and other technologists to serve as technology policy advisors to Members of Congress through one-year Congressional Innovation Fellowship. They bridge the divide of knowledge and experience between DC and Silicon Valley for better outcomes for both.
