The Mossavar-Rahmani Center for Business and Government (M-RCBG) at Harvard Kennedy School hosted the first town hall organized by the Future of Tech Commission, an independent and bipartisan group of civic leaders whose goal is to inform the Biden administration about challenges related to technology and to create a comprehensive blueprint for forward-looking, inclusive tech policy. The event, titled “A Public Discussion on Creating Safe, Healthy Online Spaces for All Americans,” sought input from governors, policymakers, community leaders, and citizens across the country on the perils and possibilities that tech platforms pose for American families. A total of five town halls will take place across the country, covering a range of concerns: digital equity, innovation, market competition, privacy, and platform safety.
