Washington is back in the arena, and this time, regulation is the new growth curve. With political uncertainty and regulatory scrutiny intensifying, founders today face more policy challenges than ever before. But what if the path forward isn’t to fight the system, but to rebuild it from within?

Featuring Odyssey, a govtech company transforming access to education, this conversation will dive deep into how startups in highly regulated spaces can innovate, build trust, and win in a world where policy shapes markets.

Moderated by Bradley Tusk of Tusk Venture Partners, this panel will ask the hard questions:

- Can startups still win when the state is your biggest stakeholder — or your biggest threat?
- When does regulation become a moat, not a minefield?
- What kind of founder builds for systems most fear to touch?

If you’re building in AI, fintech, edtech, govtech or just curious where power is shifting next — this event is for you.
