This event promoted Startup America and Startup America Partnership programs. The President has issued an Executive Order instructing federal agencies to eliminate or reduce regulations that are outdated or overly burdensome to entrepreneurs.
Rashmi tweeted her observations of the event: b It's a who's who of Silicon Valley. Ron Conway just walked in,b and b everyone claps when Obama talks about having highly skilled immigrants who want to build companies here getting to stay.b (You can learn more about this at Startup Visa.)
