Election Bridge is a conduit and activator for households to connect and share feedback with the different levels of U.S. government. The platform allows users to come together as a unified voice and utilize technology to generate data-led insights for better governance and improved hyperlocal development.
They talk about what a typical day looks like for a CEO and COO of a startup as well as internships and more!
