Freedom to Innovate: Rethinking Market Regulation
Update: 2025-05-28
Description
In this episode of IAF Continued Conversations, hosts Arpita Nepal and Rainer Heufers sit down with seasoned Silicon Valley entrepreneur and investor John Chisholm to tackle a critical policy question: How can we regulate markets without suffocating innovation, entrepreneurship, and economic dynamism?
With over four decades of experience in the tech industry, Chisholm brings sharp insights into how regulation can support—or hinder—growth. The discussion contrasts organic regulations, which evolve from societal norms and common law, with imposed regulations, often rigid and top-down. Together, they explore how policymakers can strike the right balance, drawing on real-world examples from worker status laws, the drone industry, and financial markets.
Whether you're a policymaker, entrepreneur, or simply someone interested in economic freedom and innovation, this episode offers a practical and globally informed lens on smarter regulation.
