During the spring quarter, The Tech Policy Lab hosted scholars from around the world. 

French Consulate

In April, David Do Paço, the Academic Cooperation Attaché at the Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs, visited the West Coast with Sciences Po professor Mario Del Pero. The visit built on the relationship started when Do Paço came in November 2025. This time, the duo capped their tour of California universities with time at UW and the Tech Policy Lab, and participation in the work of the University of Washington, Henry M. Jackson School of International Studies on European security.

Do Paço and Del Pero met with Lab Co-Director Ryan Calo and Executive Director Alex Bolton. Their trip was supported by the Sciences Po American Foundation, and focusing on the study of American foreign policy since the Cold War.

World Affairs Council

In late March, the Tech Policy Lab hosted a delegation from the International Visitor Leadership Program (IVLP) in conjunction with the World Affairs Council of Seattle. There were participants from 21 different countries and 5 continents. Attendees learned about the work of the Lab, which many participants were excited to bring home with them, and had a thoughtful conversation about a number of important tech policy issues. After that wrapped up, the group visited the blooming cherry blossoms in the Quad.
