Defense Innovation Unit (DIU)

Abstract

The DIU mission is to accelerate innovation and help the U.S. military make faster and more efficient use of emerging commercial technologies. The Department of Defense (DoD) relies on innovation to maintain our nation's ability to deter and prevail in conflict. The DIU increases the Department's access to leading-edge technologies and talent that reside in the commercial sector. Working across the country, and in collaboration with the military departments and international partners, DIU is developing new ways of doing business, growing our defense industrial base to include "non-traditional" companies that had previously not collaborated with the military, working with traditional vendors in novel ways to increase efficiency, and challenging innovators to share their knowledge and expertise in support of our nation's defense.
