Silverside met U.S. Secretary of Commerce Penny Pritzker last week, participating in a tour and roundtable discussion on manufacturing and innovation hosted by Greentown Labs. The Secretary has made the support of start-ups a platform of her policy agenda, and she is moving beyond rhetoric and into the gritty details of practice: she and her staff asked in detail about the pathways and challenges for new companies in scaling up manufacturing—and responded within hours to our questions about how DoC can help startups navigate the labyrinth of rules around exports.
Thanks for your visit, Secretary Pritzker—Silverside is always willing to share our perspective. (Secretary Carter, Secretary Kerry, Secretary Moniz happy to help out however we can!)
