Tech, Federalism, Procurement, & Starlink with Katherine Boyle, a16z

Katherine Boyle (@KTmBoyle), GP at a16z, joins Anne Dwane (@adwane) and Lucas Bagno (@lucasbagnocv) on this episode to discuss:- What needs to change inside the federal government for more contracts to go to startups.- How startups should think about working with state and local governments.- How trust has declined in public institutions over the last several decades and how companies can credibly step into that void by building in public and telling their own story.- How Starlink will change where people live and how they live their offline life.- Why, if people are laughing at you, you’re probably taking yourself seriously enough.- What tech misunderstands about government and vice versa, including how Silicon Valley came to have a positive sum mindset and Washington ended up with a zero sum mindset.Thanks for listening — if you like what you hear, please review us on your favorite podcast platform. Check us out on the web at www.villageglobal.vc or get in touch with us on Twitter @villageglobal.Want to get updates from us?
