Partnering with Universities

Idea

To leverage the complementary strengths of a university and a policy institute, New America has partnered with three leading academic institutions: Arizona State University, Florida International University, and Southern New Hampshire University.

Incubation

Arizona State partnered with New America and Slate to create Future Tense, a digital and events project that brings story-telling and public engagement to the conversation about tech’s future. That partnership grew to include ASU fellowships at New America and faculty appointments at ASU for New America staff, as well as the jointly-managed Center on the Future of War and its annual Future Security Forum. Florida International formed a Cybersecurity Partnership with New America to work on key cybersecurity topics—such as building cybersecurity workforce capacity (including collaborating to host the National Initiative on Cybersecurity Education Annual Conference) and international cyber capacity—and offer high quality cybersecurity policy education. Southern New Hampshire University partners with our Fellows program to support a new generation of storytellers as they seek to reach a broad audience. Since establishing the partnership, SNHU has hosted two National Fellows on campus as commencement speakers. Stanford University’s new Cyber Policy Center is now partnering with New America to support DigiChina, a unique project that translates and analyzes important Chinese documents on digital economy topics, such as artificial intelligence and data governance.

Impact

The conferences and fellowships resulting from these partnerships have reached millions of people, produced 10 books, and brought together thousands of influential leaders from the national security and cybersecurity arenas.
