Are you ready? \n\n\n\n\nDual-Use Tech: The New Era of Defense Innovation \nThe “traditional” way of doing business with the government has just changed. With the Department of War’s recent acquisition reforms\, the barrier between commercial brilliance and national security has never been thinner. We’re bringing together the founders building the tech\, the VCs funding the mission\, and the government leaders rewriting the rulebook. \nThe Panel \n\nJinendra Ranka | Associate.
