A quick reminder that the VetsinTech NatSec + Space Innovation Summit is coming up October 8–9 in San Francisco during Fleet Week. What a speaker lineup. We’ll hear from NASA astronaut Victor Glover; former Secretary of the Air Force Frank Kendall III; former Defense Innovation Unit (DIU) Director Doug Beck; Jon Bal of OpenAI; Joshua Marcuse of Google; and leaders from Blue Origin, Scale AI, TurbineOne, Shield Capital, and the Naval Postgraduate School. Katherine Webster and the VetsinTech team are bringing together people across government, industry, investment, research, and the veteran community. I’m looking forward to the conversations and the connections that come from having them in the same room. See the speakers, full program, and tickets here: vetsintech.co/nssis/
