Chris McCoy is the founder and curator of Data4America, a nonpartisan platform advancing understanding of American innovation and public policy. His 'purple' approach stems from authentic lived experience spanning rural and urban environments, traditional and innovative sectors. Drawing on two decades of identifying technological inflection points ahead of mainstream adoption, Chris brings a unique forecasting perspective to policy analysis that bridges worlds rarely in communication—from resource-dependent communities to Silicon Valley innovation. As the only figure positioned to democratically govern technology rather than be governed by it, he addresses the policy challenges that will define our technological century.
