Planning is underway for the Technology Policy Institute’s 2016 Aspen Forum, and information regarding panel topics and select speakers is now available. Registration for the signature event can be performed on the TPI website and reduced registration fees are offered until July 1st. This year’s Forum is scheduled for August 21 – 23.

This year’s theme is, “2016 and Beyond: Technology Policy Challenges.” The next administration will face difficult policy choices that will affect the pace and direction of innovation. How might a new administration think differently about issues as diverse as the future of connectivity, the tradeoff between privacy and security, incentives to invest in new infrastructure, technologies and content, and how to coordinate policies with our global partners? Speakers at the 2016 TPI Aspen Forum will look ahead to the critically important policy debates that will take place over the coming years.

Keynote speakers at the 2016 Aspen Forum include:

Dennis Kooker, President, Global Digital Business & U.S. Sales, Sony Music Entertainment

The Honorable Edith Ramirez, Chairwoman, Federal Trade Commission
