Keynote Interview
Technological innovation at the Department of Defense has never been more important to U.S. national security. And competition never so fierce. Despite this critical need, this spring Deputy Secretary of Defense Kathleen Hicks argued “the United States government has developed an unhealthy risk aversion.” In conversation with Deputy Secretary Hicks, Defense One will explore the DOD’s approach to innovation, what needs to change, and how great power competition is shaping national security technology priorities.
