[12th Sept] TxP x UKD1: Tom Kalil fireside
Hey everyone, we hope you had a great summer!
For our next event, we’re teaming up with UKDayOne again to bring you a fireside chat with Tom Kalil, who led the Office of Science and Technology Policy in the Obama White House and is now the CEO of Renaissance Philanthropy.
It’s no exaggeration to say that Tom is a remarkable driving force behind so much of global science and technology progress, so this will be a hugely inspiring conversation:
As always, this event is for startups, political advisers, VCs, policymakers, software engineers, designers, data scientists, and anyone who cares about technology, public impact, and the future. And if you’re not familiar with Tom’s work, here are a couple of links we’d strongly recommend:

See you on the 12th,
Andrew & Tom
