FIU Convenes Researchers, Leaders, and Investors in Support of Defense Industry
FIU has taken a bold approach to helping boost national security by convening leaders around a critical question facing the defense sector: Why can’t the speed of innovation keep up with demand?
The initiative, “Capitalizing on Universities for National Security,” launched a national partnership of stakeholders across industries working toward similar objectives in supporting national security.
FIU’s robust research record and its recognized strength as a solutions-oriented institution prompted administrators to call the gathering, inviting over 50 members of private industry, heads of government agencies, policymakers, and higher-education leaders.
The goal was to strategize and share ideas to strengthen collaboration and advance national defense capacity.
