It's been 5 years since the last in-person AppCon in DC, and believe me when I say it was back bigger and better than ever! ✈️ We had amazing meetings with staffers across the House and Senate as well as federal agencies like the NTIA, FTC, and USTR to share MotionMobs' story about why policy matters to small tech companies and then capped off each day with some outstanding food.
Some of our key topics...
🕵️♀️ A federal privacy law that preempts the now 18 varying state regulations to allow small businesses like ours to comply without a full legal team
🤖 An informed and balanced AI act that doesn't over-generalize and overreach with harmful impacts on the rapid AI innovations coming out of small business
💰 A path to leverage mergers and acquisitions as exit strategies when seeking funding through private equity
🩺 Expanded support to address health disparities through wearable healthtech
Huge shoutout to the incredible team at ACT and all of their work that went into this week. We've missed you guys and were thrilled to be back. Can't wait for AppCon 2025!
