It's been a year since we last interviewed Justin Lynch as part of the DEF Boston - AI Strategy & Defense event. The NSCAI has completed their final report, and will now join a roundtable discussion with DEF Boston Lead Adam Beal and DEF Executive Director Michael Madrid. During the roundtable, Justin and Courtney will share key findings from their research, as well as information on how the DEF community can help promote action on critical initiatives to ensure the U.S. is prepared to defend and compete in the AI-era

About DEF


The mission of the Defense Entrepreneurs Forum is to inspire, connect and empower people by convening events, forging partnerships and delivering tangible solutions. We do this in order to promote a culture of innovation in the U.S. national security community.


We are united in this purpose through service to our nation and the desire to bring new ideas and innovations to the national security ecosystem. We recognize that large, multi-tiered organization can stymie new ideas and ways of solving problems. Within any such group, there are people driven to find new, better, faster, cheaper, easier and more effective solutions. DEF unites those people, enabling them with avenues to express themselves, connect with like-minded individuals, and gain the insights, mentorship and support necessary to bring their ideas to execution.


If you have an interest in national security, regardless of whether you work in government, academia, a startup, policy or industry, you may also be a virtuous insurgent.
