High Stakes Podcast - Ep 10: Tech Hubs Program

Показать описание
This episode is about the US Economic Development Administration’s
recent release of the USA’s new $10B regional technology & innovation hubs program, an
initiative born out of the CHIPS and Science Act to create 10 tech hubs in US cities over the next
5 years. We will talk about what the program is, how it will work, and how the funding phases
will be allocated to cities. We’ll also discuss what this means for the existing US tech industry,
Venture Capital, and how cities and companies can benefit from the program. The discussion
will include: Blake Hall, the CEO/Founder of our portfolio company, ID.me, and his take on a
potential Cybersecurity hub; George Hornedo, one of our investors, who has been heavily
involved in educating states and cities across the country about the program; and David Yarkin,
the CEO/founder of our portfolio company, Procurated.
