Get familiar with the U.S. defense innovation ecosystem and discover why Canadian companies are perfectly positioned to seize the opportunity
With the backdrop of an increasingly complex security environment defined by rapid technological change, the U.S Department of Defense (DoD) is acutely aware that its competitive military advantage is at risk of further eroding without a rapid, iterative approach to fostering innovation.
Unrelenting competitive pressures have given rise to an innovation ecosystem within the DoD as well as a realization that technological advantage depends on a healthy and secure national security innovation base that includes both traditional and non-traditional defence partners. This has opened doors for new entrants and smaller-scale vendors—both domestic and foreign—to provide cutting-edge technologies to the DoD.
