6A – Identifying Opportunities in Economic & Regulatory Trends
Regulatory: Regulation 1: " U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, invite the public to comment on applications to conduct certain activities with foreign endangered species, marine mammals, or both." Where I found it: Regulations.gov Opportunity 1: An application with easy to use interface that allows people to vote on pending permits that deal with endangered animals. What leads me to believe an opportunity like this might be successful is that the process of submitting these comments to the US Fish and Wildlife is kind of tedious. I believe millennials and young people who want to be involved will use this app. The Opportunity is rather easy to replicate if you know how to create app, but I believe what will set it apart is if it is government funded. What leads me to see this opportunity is the recent rise of emerging apps that help young people get more involved politically. --- Regulation 2: IRS releases new 2018 withholding tables to reflect tax
