Linda Moore is the President and CEO of TechNet, the national, bipartisan network of technology CEOs and senior executives. As President and CEO, Linda drives strategy at the intersection of business, policy, and politics, and delivers outcomes to ensure the U.S. wins the next era of innovation. During her tenure, TechNet has become what WIRED magazine described as “tech’s most powerful advocacy group.” With nearly 100 member companies employing over 4.5 million people and countless customers across IT, artificial intelligence, e-commerce, the sharing and gig economies, advanced energy, transportation, cybersecurity, venture capital, and finance, TechNet is the voice of the innovation economy in Washington and all 50 state capitals across America.

In her 10 years leading TechNet, Linda has worked with Congress and three administrations (soon to be four) to lay the foundation for reclaiming America’s global leadership in innovation. TechNet played a significant role in helping to pass the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act to modernize our cities and towns; the United States-Mexico-Canada trade agreement, which set the digital trade standard for U.S. trade deals; the CHIPS and Science Act to onshore semiconductor manufacturing and establish regional tech hubs across the country; the Building Blocks of STEM Act to improve the U.S. tech talent pipeline; and federal tax reform to ensure U.S. companies remain globally competitive.

Linda established TechNet’s award-winning 50-state advocacy program, which is unparalleled in size and expertise among trade associations. With eight regional executive directors across the country, TechNet engaged on 768 bills in 45 states, Washington, D.C., and Puerto Rico in 2024, with an 87% success rate on issues including artificial intelligence, data privacy, content moderation, online marketplaces, autonomous vehicles, taxation, digital repair, education, and more.

As a leading advocate for the innovation economy, Linda is a sought-after speaker on the leading role technology plays in advancing the U.S. economy, fostering growth, and enhancing our global competitiveness while improving the quality of life for the American people. She appears frequently on national television and in major media outlets to talk about the opportunities and challenges facing the tech industry and its impact on our economy and society.
