(202) 599-0408*   Tech Policy in 2013 Roundtable (11/13):
The View from Communications Policy

WASHINGTON D.C. - Join us Tuesday, November 13, 2012 at 10:30 a.m. for the
first in a series of three roundtables exploring "Tech Policy in 2013." Is
technological change rendering obsolete traditional silos of regulation
within and between regulatory agencies? How might Congress change the
institutions and regulatory paradigms governing the Internet? Where can a
divided Congress forge compromise in tech policy? Each roundtable will
explore these questions from a particular starting point reflecting the
expertise of the panelists. Tuesday's roundtable will begin from the view
of traditional communications law and focus in large part on policy
developments at the FCC. Two additional roundtables (dates to be announced)
will feature experts in, respectively, competition and privacy law.

Tuesday's roundtable, co-hosted by
