Internet Law & Policy Foundry

About Internet Law & Policy Foundry

The Internet Law & Policy Foundry is a collaborative collection of early-career Internet law and policy professionals passionate about technology and disruptive innovation. The Foundry offers members a platform for professional development, constructive debate, and network-building within a cohort of skilled attorneys and policy analysts eager to help shape the development of Internet law and policy. The Foundry was created to address the growing demand by early and mid-level law and policy professionals for opportunities to master a range of Internet policy issues and apply their knowledge. Members are interested and involved not only in traditional areas affected by the Internet like patents and copyright, telecommunications regulation, and consumer protection, but also issues in which the Internet is central like cybersecurity, Internet governance, privacy, and surveillance. The Foundry is led by a core group of early professionals and outstanding students who have demonstrated genuine passion for the Internet, technology and innovation within and beyond their studies or profession. Similar to a bar association, the Foundry offers seminars, publications, and networking opportunities, but Foundry membership is open to lawyers and non-lawyers alike. Referred by the most prominent legal and policy minds in America, Foundry members make up the vanguard of the burgeoning Internet law and policy ecosystem. --Affiliation-- The framework for the Internet Law & Policy Foundry was created by the Internet Education Foundation, a 501c3 with a strong track building prominent platforms for stakeholder engagement in the Internet policy space. Current IEF platforms include the Congressional Internet Caucus Advisory Committee, the State of the Net Conference series, and the Congressional App Challenge.
