Federal Funding: Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA)

This is a past event.

Presented by experts from McAllister & Quinn, a Washington, DC-based consulting firm, and hosted by the Office of Research, this presentation is designed to introduce ways in to working with DARPA and provide a first step in connecting with DARPA Program Managers.

For sixty years, DARPA has held to a singular and enduring mission: to make pivotal investments in breakthrough technologies for national security.

DARPA explicitly reaches for transformational change instead of incremental advances. But it does not perform its engineering alchemy in isolation. It works within an innovation ecosystem that includes academic, corporate and governmental partners, with a constant focus on the Nation’s military Services, which work with DARPA to create new strategic opportunities and novel tactical options. For decades, this vibrant, interlocking ecosystem of diverse collaborators has proven to be a nurturing environment for the intense creativity that DARPA is designed to cultivate.

Thursday, October 25 at 12:00 p.m. to 1:00 p.m.
