The Tech People Helping the Trump Administration Shake Up Government
So far, most of the spotlight on Silicon Valley’s Washington invasion has focused on how Elon Musk and a band of young techies from his companies are scouring the federal government looking for waste. But a significant cohort of staff from other Valley firms are assuming outsize roles in the Trump administration as well.
In fact, you could practically call this the Andreessen Horowitz administration. In our org chart showing more than two dozen of the top techies on Team Trump, no fewer than four current or former partners of the venture firm have assumed formal or informal roles in the Trump administration. That includes co-founder Marc Andreessen, an adviser to Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency, and Scott Kupor, serving as director of the Office of Personnel Management.
