The challenge
America’s innovation edge is eroding—not because we lack the talent or technology, but because we haven’t built the infrastructure to activate and scale that talent & tech where it matters most. Traditional academic systems move too slowly. Defense innovation cycles take too long. And the next generation of leaders lacks the formative experiences needed to lead with purpose.
