Smashing (Data) Silos
<p>Technology is constantly evolving and when you are in charge of protecting the US against threats, it is critical to stay ahead. Leveraging new technology when you’ve worked with the same system for so long can be a challenge, and that’s why the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) and U.S. Northern Command partnered with DIU to design and implement a commercial technology to transform how they analyze and use data to make critically important decisions to keep the U.S. safe. Major General Angela Cadwell and Colonel Ross Morrell join hosts Dan Dilllard and Zach Walker to discuss NORAD, US Northern Command, and what it is like working with DIU to innovate new technologies for our Nation’s defense. </p><br><p>Guests: Major General Angela Cadwell and Colonel Ross Morrel</p><p>Hosts: Dan Dillard and Zach Walker</p><p>Producer: Kathryn Hudack</p><p>Audio Engineer: Jake Wallace</p><br><p>Learn more about the Defense Innovation Unit: <a href="https://www.diu.mil/about" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.diu.mil/about</a></p><br><p>founding_media YouTube Channel: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLlc0lfwr6IBWgGl0hm8HGXOAu8jwy_vy_" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLlc0lfwr6IBWgGl0hm8HGXOAu8jwy_vy_</a></p><br><p>Defense Innovation Podcast: <a href="https://shows.acast.com/defense-innovation-from-tanks-to-teleportation/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://shows.acast.com/defense-innovation-from-tanks-to-teleportation/</a></p><br><p>A <a href="https://foundingmedia.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">founding_media</a> Podcast</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

The Innovation Policy Perspective
<p>Acquisition reform was put in motion to meet the pace of technological change and the pace in which threats to the nation have been evolving. Doing business at commercial speeds makes the Department of Defense more friendly for non-traditional and commercial companies and this streamlining has received bipartisan support. Former Congressman Mac Thornberry of Texas’ 13th congressional district was the chair of the House Armed Services Committee from 2015-2019 and spearheaded much of the defense reform that enables DIU to accelerate commercial technology and methodologies into the DoD today. Former Congressman Thornberry joins hosts Dan Dillard and Zach Walker to discuss policies that help attract businesses from the commercial world to work with the DoD to meet the changing threats to the nation's security.</p><br><p>Guest: Former Rep.
