Equipping the Corps

Defense Innovation Unit with LtCol Glenn McCartan


Listen Later

The Defense Innovation Unit, or DIU, was established to

accelerate the adoption of commercial technology throughout the U.S. military
to ensure our forces continue to have a technological advantage over our
adversaries and competitors. DIU partners with organizations across the
Department of Defense, from the services and components to combatant commands
and 4th estate agencies, to rapidly prototype and field advanced commercial
solutions.

 

DIU is the only DoD organization focused exclusively on

fielding and scaling commercial technology across the U.S. military at the
speed of relevance. The DIU is focused on six technology areas where the
commercial sector is leading the way: artificial intelligence, autonomy, cyber
and telecommunications, energy, human systems, and space.

 

On this episode, Tripp chats with DIU Liaisons Officer to the

U.S. Marine Corps, Lt. Col. Glenn McCartan.
