Tech Foundations @ Georgetown Law logo

Georgetown Law’s Tech Foundations for Government Staff program (formerly called Tech Foundations for Congressional Staff) is an immersive program covering foundational concepts and new developments in current and emerging technologies.

Join fellow government staffers for in-depth conversations with technologists, practitioners, and academics about key areas of technology policy. Presentations will cover how various technologies work; how they’re being deployed; the policy questions they raise; and how businesses, policymakers, and civil society are addressing those questions in the real world.

Tech Foundations is designed to comply with government ethics rules. If you have questions about your ability to participate, please contact the appropriate ethics committee. Available to government attendees only.
