BENS invites members to join us for a lunch discussion with General David Berger (USMC, retired), BENS Member Kirsten Bartok Touw, and other authors of Strategic Edge: A Blueprint for Breakthroughs in Defense Innovation, a report commissioned and released by Michael Bloomberg earlier this year.
The report details a series of recommendations to modernize the defense ecosystem, which closely aligns with BENS’s priorities. In this discussion, they will highlight the report’s recommendations and share their ongoing stakeholder engagement and implementation efforts. Hear from the authors directly and join this opportunity to provide feedback and discuss industry’s role in defense modernization.
A light lunch will be served prior to opening the discussion.
