  • Lincoln Network – Lincoln Network was founded to bridge the gap between innovators and policymakers, and advance a more perfect union between technology and democracy. We believe in a world of competitive markets and free people, and that fostering a robust but responsible innovation ecosystem is crucial to creating a better, freer, and more abundant future.
