Join the Institute of Politics for our Food for Thought Lunch series featuring moderator Doug Sosnik alongside bipartisan political strategists Sara Fagen, Founder & CEO of Tunnl, and Tom Bonier, CEO of TARA Group. 


Together, they will explore how data, artificial intelligence, and emerging technologies are transforming modern campaigns, voter engagement, and political strategy across the ideological spectrum. The conversation will examine both the opportunities and challenges AI presents for elections, governance, and the future of democratic participation.


Please register with a valid Harvard email address to attend in-person.
