Jake Ward has been appointed chair of the Developers Alliance's new board, aimed at tackling significant public policy issues impacting application developers. He co-founded the Alliance to give developers a voice in policy discussions, particularly as 2025 looms as a critical year for tech regulation. Ward aims to promote a national data privacy law, advocate for practical AI regulations, and counter harmful policies targeting the app ecosystem. Developers are concerned about legal actions that may reshape their industry and threaten innovation.
Developers are a primary driver of America's economy and a powerful engine of innovation and growth. Now, more than ever, they must have a voice in public policy discussions.
Ward emphasizes that 2025 will be a critical year for tech policy, signaling the Alliance's commitment to advocate for developers amidst rising legal and regulatory challenges.
Many developers have expressed fears about the potentially harmful consequences of the national data privacy bill and remedies suggested following the Google search lawsuit.
The U.S. innovation economy is at a crossroads. To maintain our place as the global technology leader, we must advocate for constructive policies that encourage growth.
