And the winner is… John F. Kennedy! 🚀 On Monday we asked which U.S. president had the biggest impact on technology, and JFK took the top spot! Here’s a look at why he—and the other contenders—made history through innovation: ➡️ John F. Kennedy (Poll Winner!) – JFK’s bold vision led to the Apollo space program, setting the U.S. on a path to land on the moon. His challenge to put a man on the moon before the decade’s end not only revolutionized space exploration but also spurred advancements in computing, telecommunications, and materials science. ➡️ Abraham Lincoln – The only U.S. president to hold a patent, Lincoln promoted the expansion of railroads and the telegraph, vastly improving communication and commerce across the country. ➡️ Dwight D. Eisenhower – Eisenhower created DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency), which laid the foundation for the internet and other technological innovations in defense and computing. ➡️ Franklin D. Roosevelt – Under FDR, the U.S. funded the development of the Harvard Mark I, one of the first programmable computers, paving the way for modern computing. Thank you to everyone who voted and joined the discussion! We hope you had a great President's Day! #PresidentsDay #Innovation #Technology #Leadership #SIMDFW
