By invitation from the White House,�Slideshare CEO and Female Internet Hero Rashmi Sinha attended President Obama?s Town Hall held April 20 at Facebook headquarters. 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 The President has issued an Executive Order instructing federal agencies to eliminate or reduce regulations that are outdated or overly burdensome to entrepreneurs.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: ?It's a who's who of Silicon Valley. Ron Conway just walked in,? and ?everyone claps when Obama talks about having highly skilled immigrants who want to build companies here getting to stay.? (You can learn more at Startup Visa.)
Following the town hall, there were two panels: one focused on Women in Technology and another focused on the Startup America initiative. The White House has published a transcript of the Town Hall on its�SlideShare channel.
