The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is starting off the year with a brand new endeavor. January 7th, 2021 will see the unveiling of the new DHS Startup Studio. From 2:30p to 4:30p EST, the department will introduce The Startup Studio.
The Startup Studio
The DHS Startup Studio is a collaborative effort between cybersecurity innovators, entrepreneurs, and mentors to form new companies around technologies aimed at solving real-world problems. The goal is to create technologies that meet the needs of the DHS. Additionally, the creations will be used to assist commercial entities as well, and discover how best to deliver those innovations to them.
“The goals of the Homeland Security Startup Studio are to build the foundational entrepreneurial knowledge and skillsets for teams to quickly assess the potential for DHS and commercial use cases and to build startups and spin off companies quickly so they can successfully license technology and directly impact the security posture of the U.S.” said Megan Mahle, director of S&T’s Office of Industry Partnerships.
Be Part Of The Action
New ventures in technologies benefit all of us. As we’ve seen over the past year, cyberattacks are increasing. With continued interference from malicious foreign actors, improved technologies are a must.
