Policy Finishing School

The QED-C Law & Policy Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) is hosting a Policy Finishing School, a preparatory session designed to help participants make the most of meetings with policymakers on Capitol Hill during the week of the QED-C Quantum Summit in Washington, DC.

Many will use their time in Washington during the Summit to meet with Members of Congress and Congressional staff. This session is designed to ensure participants are well prepared for those conversations—providing the policy context, practical guidance, and insider perspectives needed to engage effectively with policymakers.

Participants will hear from former Members of Congress, Congressional staff, and quantum industry policy leaders about how Congress operates, how industry perspectives shape policy discussions, and how to structure productive meetings with Congressional offices.

Topics will include:

• An overview of QED-C’s current policy priorities
• A practical introduction to the legislative branch and Congressional process
• Insights from former Congressional staff and policymakers
• Guidance on requesting and conducting effective Congressional meetings
• What to expect when navigating Capitol Hill logistics

This session will help QED-C members represent both their organizations and the broader quantum ecosystem effectively in conversations with policymakers. No prior policy experience or knowledge is necessary to attend this event.
