Technology & Telecom Policy for the Innovation Economy
Fulcrum's Technology Practice helps clients shape federal policy on the issues driving today's innovation economy. We represent companies ranging from emerging technology startups to Fortune 500 businesses on broad artificial intelligence policy, federal data privacy legislation, cybersecurity, telecommunications, digital infrastructure, defense technology, and other emerging tech issues.
Shaping Federal Policy for the Innovation Economy
Our team works directly with Congress, the Administration, and federal agencies to develop and execute strategies that advance our clients' business objectives while anticipating legislative and regulatory risks. We have successfully secured client priorities in federal data privacy legislation, including industry-specific exclusions, helped draft and introduce artificial intelligence legislation, and built bipartisan support for technology policy initiatives across both chambers of Congress. We also have deep experience developing legislative proposals, securing report and bill language, and advancing amendments in authorization and appropriations measures, including the NDAA and annual appropriations bills.
Credibility and Real Relationships
Beyond legislative advocacy, we help clients build lasting credibility and true relationships with policymakers. Our team consistently secures member-level and senior staff meetings, congressional speaking opportunities, and strategic engagements that position clients as trusted resources on complex technology issues. We have prepared clients to testify before Congress, organized congressional staff briefings on emerging policy challenges, and connected clients with key committee staff, agency officials, and bipartisan policymakers. We also bring congressional leaders and policy experts directly to our clients through board meetings, executive briefings, roundtables, and other curated engagements that provide meaningful insight while strengthening relationships with decision-makers. Whether advancing AI policy, shaping federal privacy legislation, or navigating cybersecurity and defense technology priorities, Fulcrum delivers practical advocacy that helps clients influence policy and achieve tangible and measurable outcomes.
