Connecting Silicon Valley to Defense Industry

Join Daniel Ateya, Managing Director of RTX Ventures, as he discusses how best to integrate the VC community into the defense industrial base to promote innovation and get new companies and investors involved in the development and deployment of emerging technologies.  How does the VC world view the defense market? How do defense primes like RTX think about integrating their VC initiatives with their traditional defense contracting work? What more can the Pentagon do attract VCs into the defense market and keep them engaged?  RTX Ventures: https://www.rtx.com/who-we-are/ventures DOD Office of Strategic Capital: https://www.cto.mil/osc/ ETI National Defense Magazine - Strengthening Defense With Private Capital: https://www.nationaldefensemagazine.org/articles/2024/12/6/emerging-technology-horizons-strengthening-defense-with-private-capital To receive updates about the conference please join our mailing list here: https://www.emergingtechnologiesinstitute.org/sign-up http://emergingtechnologiesinstitute.org https://www.facebook.com/EmergingTechETI https://www.linkedin.com/company/ndia-eti-emerging-technologies-institute https://www.twitter.com/EmergingTechETI
