During a tech summit meeting in December 2016, President-elect Donald Trump pledged his aid in helping top technology executives continue to innovate. It’s alarming, however, that no one sitting at the table represented the heart of the American tech industry — small and midsized companies. Even Twitter was left out, because the social media trailblazer was deemed “too small.”
While Trump himself promised to do “anything we can” to help the tech industry, he must keep in mind that the core of innovation comes from smaller businesses as well, not just from the Silicon Valley elite. If innovation is truly going to be one of this administration’s key pillars, these innovators must have a voice.
