The TIDE is rising! Following last week’s awesome #FedSupernova conference at Capital Factory in Austin, it was wonderful to meet with additional dual-use and non-traditional solution providers at #BlueTIDE2024 this week in Newport. Congrats to the Northeast Tech Bridge and 401 Tech Bridge for coordinating and executing an impressive event supported by Senator Sheldon Whitehouse. As part of the event, NavalX was onsite to facilitate engagements among solution providers, end users, and stakeholders to strategize how the ANELLO Photonics optical gyroscope IMU and other sensors, when integrated onto an autonomous surface vehicle, can create a low-cost and effective capability that will advance next-generation maritime navigation for USVs operating in GPS-denied environments. It’s a very exciting time for us to support our #Fleet and #Force customers with such a rich pool of novel tech from a burgeoning industrial base! #MakeItMatter Holli Foster Paul Davis Mario Paniccia Kirstin Schauble Kate Baldwin Brett Seidle Scott Pappano Maria A.

Meet DIU-Defense Acquisition University Immersive Commercial Acquisition Program (ICAP) FY2024 Fellow Tianna Seaman! As an ICAP fellow Tianna supports DIU’s Energy portfolio and shares a personal highlight from the program. “A professional highlight for me will be working with DIU during a departmental first, with a DIU contract becoming the first to obligate Military Construction (MILCON) funds using an OTA under the FY 2023 NDAA pilot. I’ve been able to witness firsthand how DOD is able to apply new authorities, create the process in which best to apply the authority, and contract with vendors.” Tianna is a contracting officer at the Naval Information Warfare Center Atlantic contracting competency at @Joint Base Charleston, South Carolina where she supports the Expeditionary Enterprise Systems and Services Division. In addition to her role as a contracting officer, Tianna serves on the employee council where she collaborates with contracting peers across the command on new and innovative ideas. Interested in becoming the next ICAP fellow? Applications are open until August 30, 2024. Apply today!  https://lnkd.in/gGMbmjSA
