Ronak Daylami, CalChamber vice president for advocacy, privacy, cybersecurity, and emerging technologies, has been named to the newly formed California Innovation Council.
Gov. Gavin Newsom launched the council this week as one of several initiatives gathering the “best and brightest tech policy experts from across the country” to help the state develop and strengthen its technology policy.
Daylami will serve on the council working group looking at technology, economic development, and workforce, co-led by the Governor’s Office of Business and Economic Development (GO-Biz) and the Labor and Workforce Development Agency.
Other working groups will focus on protecting child online safety and countering image-based abuse; modernizing government service delivery; and countering tech fraud.
“California is at the forefront of AI technology — and is home to some of the most successful and innovative companies and academic leaders in the world,” the Governor said in a news release announcing his initiatives. “We’re not going to sit on the sidelines and let others define the future for us. But we’re going to do it responsibly — making sure we capture the benefits, mitigate the harms, and continue to lead with the values that define this state.”
Council members include scientists, researchers, academics and people with experience in state and national governance.
