Kleiner Perkins partner Mamoon Hamid has been appointed chair of the executive council at bipartisan tech policy group TechNet

I'm excited to become Chair of @TechNetUpdate.

John Doerr and Brook Byers helped found TechNet in the 1990s, sparked by a dinner in Palo Alto with John Chambers, Lew Platt, and others. Many said a bipartisan tech policy organization would never work, and that Silicon Valley would never embrace it.

Decades later, TechNet represents 100+ member companies and more than 5 million employees, sitting at the critical intersection of policymakers and technology.

That is a credit to @LindaMooreDC and the entire TechNet team. Look forward to the work ahead.
