Jarrett: White House exploring ways to support start-ups

White House senior adviser Valerie Jarrett said during a Brookings Institution event Wednesday the White House is exploring policies that will support start-ups.

The White House is asking itself, "What can we do to further incentivize start-ups and help companies who are starts-ups to then take there companies to scale?" Jarrett said.

The comments came in a response to a question about whether the White House would be willing to consider more aggressive ways of helping the tech sector.
