Francis chats with Deputy Director of National Intelligence for Policy and Capabilities, Charles Luftig, who discusses the exciting new partnership between the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) and the University of Virginia (UVA). The National Security Data and Policy Institute aims to bring together experts in data, policy, and national security to tackle critical challenges in an interdisciplinary way. Charles shares insights on how this collaboration will harness the power of open-source data, promote transparency, and deliver impactful results that benefit both the Intelligence Community (IC) and UVA. He also details how the partnership was established, the strategic importance of engaging with academia, and the role of open-source intelligence in shaping national security efforts.

Charles highlights the significance of unclassified information and open-source data in driving innovation and collaboration across sectors. He explains how this partnership aligns with ODNI’s broader strategy to expand relationships with non-traditional partners like academia and the private sector. Additionally, he outlines the institute’s plans for short- and long-term projects, the metrics for success, and how the IC is preparing to tackle complex issues with fresh perspectives.
