Background

One Defense was launched in response to the Technology Domain Awareness (TDA) initiative, sponsored by the Secretary of Defense to foster an expanded defense technology innovation community of practice that incorporates DOD stakeholders, traditional defense industry, the start-up and venture capital communities, and the academic research community. We have assembled a team of military, policy, and corporate leaders that understand operational requirements, the technology development process, and the business practices to meet the TDA vision.
