Episode Synopsis

In 2022, Washingtonian Magazine named Travis Moore "Tech Titan of the Year" for his work with Tech Congress, an organization he founded to bring more sorely-needed technological know-how to Members of Congress. But 7 years ago, Travis was just one of many staffers working there - on Capitol Hill - trying to keep his head above water as he tried to decipher complex proposed laws that would affect big tech companies and Americans' privacy rights without much support. Then, he was out of a job.  In Episode 3, hear how Travis:Didn't initially intend to found Tech CongressWas spurred to actionUsed proven tools to help him figure out next stepsNavigated the often-confusing world of startups and moneyFinancially survived his leapGot his first breakAdvises others who want to start something, or explore what's next, on how to get startedCheck out Episode 3 and others on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and Google Podcasts!Learn more about Travis Moore and Tech Congress - including their latest fellows, podcast, and blog - at:  https://www.techcongress.io/.Twitter @congressfellowsOther forums: https://linktr.ee/techcongress***Have guest ideas?
