The PGP for Crypto Briefing & Roundtable brings together policy professionals, government officials, regulators, and scholars for an exclusive networking breakfast, followed by keynote briefings and discussions on cryptocurrency policy. Hosted by Project Glitch, this year’s event expands on its traditional roundtable with fireside chats and guided conversations on timely crypto policy topics. Sponsored by Coinbase Institute, Blockchain Association, USC VanEck Digital Assets Initiative, and Electric Coin Co., the event pays homage to Pretty Good Privacy (PGP) encryption, reflecting its deep-rooted influence on privacy and cryptocurrency innovation.

On April 10-11, 2025, the Knight Institute will host a symposium to examine the risks that advanced artificial intelligence systems pose to democratic freedoms, to discuss sociotechnical as well as technical interventions to mitigate these risks, and to identify ways in which these systems may be employed to support democracy. The symposium, “Artificial Intelligence and Democratic Freedoms,” is a collaboration between the Knight Institute and the Institute’s Senior AI Advisor Seth Lazar. It will take place in person at Columbia University’s Lee C. Bollinger Forum and will be livestreamed.
