Dear friends,
Knight Foundation and Georgetown University recently announced a $30 million partnership to establish a new tech and information policy hub in Washington, DC. We are now in the early stages of a search for an inaugural director who will build and execute on a vision of research, policy, and technology that advance the common good.
The job posting for the executive director of the Knight-Georgetown Institute (KGI) can be found here. A selection committee has now been formed and plans to begin reviewing applications in the coming weeks. We encourage applications be submitted by August 21, 2023.
This is a unique opportunity to build something significant. If you have any questions or would like to offer input, please do not hesitate to reach out to me at sa...@kf.org or Dr. Soyica Colbert, Georgetown VP/Interdisciplinary Initiatives and Idol Family Professor of African American Studies and Performing Arts, at soyica....@georgetown.edu.
Best wishes,
john
