Adam Thierer is a technology policy analyst who specializes in innovation, entrepreneurialism and the internet and free-speech issues, with a focus on the public policy concerns surrounding emerging technologies. Thierer has authored and edited several books, including his foundational book on the freedom to innovate, "Permissionless Innovation: The Continuing Case for Comprehensive Technological Freedom." In his latest book, "Evasive Entrepreneurs and the Future of Governance: How Innovation Improves Economies and Governments," he makes the case that we should accept—and often embrace—a certain amount of disruptive entrepreneurship that fosters innovation, drives economic growth, and makes government accountable to the governed. He examines how “evasive entrepreneurs”—innovators who don’t always conform to social or legal norms—are changing the world and challenging the status quo of governance, culture and the way we earn a living.
