Aspen Tech Policy HubAspen Tech Policy Hub

Fellowship Application Summer 2020

    At the Aspen Tech Policy Hub, we take tech experts, teach them the policy process through an in-residence fellowship program in the Bay Area, and encourage them to develop outside-the-box solutions to society’s problems. We model ourselves after tech incubators like Y-Combinator, but train new policy thinkers and focus the impact of their ideas. We’re building new ideas for policymaking—every fellow must complete one practical policy output as part of their residence—and an alumni base of technologists who understand policy and want to engage with it.

    Before applying, please carefully review the fellowship details, eligibility, and Frequently Asked Questions on our website.

    If you have additional questions, we will host a Q&A based webinar on January 13 from 12pm-1pm PST/3pm-4pm EST (register here); January 29 from 9am-10am PST/12pm-1pm EST (register here); and February 10 from 12pm-1pm PST/3pm-4pm EST (register here). For Bay Area residents, we will also host an introductory event from 5pm-7pm on January 8, 2019 at Manny's. Please register here. Finally, for Seattle area residents, we will host an info session on January 31 (time and date TBA).
