Andrew Yang - VFA Strategy
Time: 2010s
Place: U.S.
Details: VFA's strategy was to recruit the nation's top college graduates into a two-year fellowship program in which they would work for an apprentice at promising startups in developing cities across the United States. Yang's book Smart People Should Build Things (2014) argues that the top universities in the country cherry-pick the smartest kids out of small towns and funnel them into the same corporate jobs in the same big cities. VFA's goal is to help distribute that talent around the country and incentivize entrepreneurship for economic growth.
