Last week, our International Strategy Forum (ISF) hosted its inaugural 'Policy Hackathon' at the ISF Europe convening in Bellagio, Italy.
Eighteen brilliant Fellows gathered to ideate proposals on topics like space policy, AI regulation, and accelerating innovation in the EU.
Thank you to our partners @usdresponse, @AllTechIsHuman and @ffwdorg for their support in helping us make Tekalo a reality.
