As always, State of the Net will be your first look at the new players and
the new issues that will take center stage in 2025. This conference is
unique for its diverse blend of perspectives and provocative thinkers. As
policy debates become more polarized, State of the Net is the most
important stakeholder gathering which brings together key players who
disagree (respectfully).

Past keynote speakers include Senators Ed *Markey*, John *Thune*, Roger
*Wicker*, and Amy *Klobuchar*, White House D/CTOs Alexander *Macgillivray*
, Aneesh *Chopra*, Megan *Smith*, and Michael *Kratsios*, AI CEO Navrina
*Singh*, UBER Founder/CEO Travis *Kalanick*, advocate Max *Schrems*,
Dropbox CEO Drew *Houston*, Comcast CEO Brian *Roberts*, and many others.
