Join BAE Systems’ Innovation team to discuss the importance of engaging with the high-tech ecosystem to achieve rapid innovation in defense and aerospace. This session will focus on the role of universities and government labs. Hear quick pitches from some of the region’s big thinkers around the roles and responsibilities of universities in defense innovation efforts. Furthering the BAE Systems Technology Scouting mission, these events are meant as a convening mechanism to encourage collaboration building between traditional defense and innovation community members to solve some of the world’s most challenging and bleeding edge technical problems.

BAE Systems, as a leading defense innovator, recognizes the need to engage and support small business, universities and venture capital investors to leverage the fast paced commercial high-tech sector to achieve successful insertion of disruptive dual-use technologies into complex defense systems.
