There is no denying the power of “Big Tech.” It permeates our modern existence. Whether we like it or not. And that gives them a ton a power. Which can be disconcerting. At best. But what if smaller startups and tech companies could band together to create a similar — potentially opposing — force…? That’s the idea behind Little Tech Association.
Little Tech Association works to make it easier to start, build, and grow in the digital economy — expanding access to capital and customers, freeing talent to move where their best ideas are, and right-sizing rules so small teams aren’t crushed by compliance costs built for giants. We champion open systems, open standards, and open infrastructure, so the tools people rely on work together and no gatekeeper decides who gets a shot. When markets stay open and competitive, the best products win — on merit, not market power.
(I’d be lying if this didn’t make me a little nostalgic for a similar movement here locally. The one that formed the Portland Independent Chamber of Commerce which went on to become Better Portland.)
