WASHINGTON, January 30, 2025 - A venture capital firm's policy document has sparked fresh debate about Silicon Valley's political realignment and drew increased attention to tech industry priorities in the lead up to Donald Trump's presidential victory, according to a Broadband Breakfast Live Online panel on Wednesday.
The “Little Tech Agenda”, released by Marc Andreessen and Ben Horowitz on July 5, 2024, preceded significant developments in tech industry political alignments, most notably Elon Musk's unprecedented $277 million in support for Trump and Republican candidates.
The document focused on several key issues: cryptocurrency regulation, artificial intelligence development, merger and acquisition policies, and capital gains taxation. These priorities helped create what some industry observers are calling a "permission structure" for Silicon Valley executives to support Trump's return to the White House.
