A common thread to innovators, we discovered, is people. It is organizations big and small putting knowledge and the ability to execute into the hands of their staff, vendors, and communities. We were inspired to hear what our client, the Port of Seattle, has been doing to combat the horrific and sometimes seemingly invisible problem of human trafficking.

We met with the Port of Seattle Commissioner Sam Cho and Operational Readiness Activation and Transition Manager Chad Aldridge to learn more about the Port’s program to lead the charge against human trafficking.
