What They’re Saying About the Tech Diplomacy Academy

“Trusted technology is vital to our national security. The Krach Institute’s Tech Diplomacy Academy is invaluable for helping public and private sector leaders navigate today’s complex technological and geopolitical competitions. The Tech Diplomacy Academy platform helps leaders see the connections between technology, diplomacy, and corporate strategy to take advantage of opportunities, reduce risks, and contribute to a more peaceful and prosperous future.”

Lt. Gen. (ret.) H.R. McMaster

Senior Fellow, Hoover Institution; 25th U.S. National Security Advisor

“As a tech investor, I’ve seen first-hand the dramatic impact new technologies have on the global balance of military, economic, political and social power. The Tech Diplomacy Academy can play an important role educating tech innovators and leaders in industry and government to be conversant in the technologies and strategies needed to ensure that freedom-loving societies retain their leadership in key tech sectors and prevent authoritarian regimes from abusing technology to expand their influence.”

Tim Draper

Renowned venture capitalist and founder of Draper Associates

“These days cyber safety is almost as important as physical safety. And most of us are way behind in keeping up with the latest ways to steal our secrets and fool us into giving things away. I’m confident that the Tech Diplomacy Academy platform will help – especially people who aren’t necessarily totally tech savvy, like me!”

Tony Abbott

28th Prime Minister of Australia, Global Tech Security Commissioner for Australia
