Local DC Tech Exec Tapped for Obama’s Transition Team

by jimmy on November 7, 2008

Just days after the election and things are moving along fast.  I was really happy to be passed this article and see that one of our own local DC technology executives and entrepeuers, Julius Genachowski, was tapped by President Elect Obama to sit on his Transition Team.

Julius is one of the founders of Launchbox Digital, a local an early stage investment firm located in Washington, D.C., is focused on helping entrepreneurs get through those challenging early days by bringing capital, advice, and practical guidance to help early stage businesses succeed.  I had the fortune to be invited to their recent summer demo day of their first crop of companies and was able to meet Julius.  He seems very young and vibrant and I look forward to him adding great value as he helps guide the new administration’s technology policies.

Congrats to Julius and good luck on your new venture !
