An evening with IEEE-USA managing director Russ Harrison

As we approach the 2024 election, it is a good time to look forward to Congress’ likely agenda next year. Join us on October 1st as IEEE’s top staffer in Washington, Russell Harrison, gives us a sneak peak at what we should expect next year, even if we don’t yet know who will be in charge. Topics to be covered include an emerging consensus (sort of) on AI regulation, commercial space policy, automation, immigration, and federal support for R&D. Russell has represented IEEE members in Washington for over 20 years and is currently the Managing Director of IEEE-USA. He and his team work directly with the US Congress and Administration to protect our interests and promote technologically sound public policies. 2024 is already looking like a challenging year for technology professionals, but there are pockets of opportunity if we take advantage of them. Join us for a lively discussion on what our government is doing and how we can help our elected leaders get technology policy right.
