Kamala Harris is the talk of the nation since Biden chose her to be his running mate. Well, the former district attorney of San Francisco is all excited about Google’s Silicon Valley campus. Harris believes in building strong relationships with the Google campus. She claims that she has always wanted to visit the campus for over a year.
Kamala Harris has a successful run as a senate and holds a failed bid for the Democratic presidential nomination. For all her election campaigns, she depended on donations from Silicon Valley. Her friends, family, and former political connections are all over the tech world.
Silicon Valley enjoyed a breezy journey with the White House under the Presidentship of Barack Obama. As vice president of the democratic party, Harris will rarely be setting up the policies. However, the critics believe that she will have a strong say in the tech policies set during Biden’s administration.
Tech companies see this as good news as they consider Harris to be one of their own. Silicon Valley has been backing Harris by raining money against their Republican opponents. John Doerr and Ron Conway are some of the big names on the list of donors.
Later, other tech giants like Sheryl Sandberg, Jony Ive, and Marc Benioff donated to Harris’s reelection campaign.
In 2013, Laurene Powell Jobs hosted a fundraiser for Kamala Harris at her Palo Alto home. It was also noticed that Harris attended Sean Parker’s wedding.
Her circle of friends and family is a part of the tech industry. A former senior counsel of Harris, Lartease Tiffith, works in the privacy and security department of Amazon. Rebecca Porcan ran the first campaign for Harris. She is currently managing government affairs for Google in California. Harris’ brother-in-law is the chief legal officer for Uber. Apart from being a politician, she shares a mutual bond with the tech industry.
