Panelists at the North Carolina Defense Summit provided conversation surrounding best practices for military/defense research and innovation. They shared that leveraging partnerships between military and state capabilities presents a unique avenue to enhance defense operations. Embracing these partnerships offers a myriad of opportunities, including improving the quality of life, promoting military spouse employment, advancing robotics, and forming collaborations with industry, the community, NC-DOT, and DPW. Fostering relationships with key centers and projects on NC Military Bases, including the Fort Liberty Innovation Outpost, Airborne Innovation Lab, and the 82nd ABN Div Experimentation Team, is essential to maximizing the potential of these partnerships.
