CesiumAstro, Second Front Systems, and X-Bow Record Top Jumps in Startup Rankings https://lnkd.in/ebCKE9RZ
We are honored to be ranked at the top of the Most Improved Companies list by Silicon Valley Defense Group in their SVDG NATSEC100 2024 Report, sponsored by JPMorganChase. Link to the report below. #NATSEC100
We are incredibly excited to share the 2024 Edition of SVDG’s NATSEC100, sponsored by JPMorganChase. The purpose of this report is to offer a data-driven snapshot in time of our emergent techno-security ecosystem–one which we hope will drive meaningful, if pointed, discourse about the state of the Defense Industrial Base (DIB) and broader National Security Innovation Base (NSIB). While this list is by no means a perfect encapsulation of the Ecosystem, we hope that—at minimum—it provides that data-driven foundation for the important dialogue we must continue to have loudly, honestly, and publicly. This year, we hope you’ll recognize that several variables seem to be trending in the right direction. Even things we were surprised by. But overall, the picture is still far from rosy. There is a lot of work that remains to be done - by all stakeholders: industry, government, the private capital community. We all have a role to play. The question is how committed are we to playing those respective roles. There is no question - in our minds here at SVDG - about how much there is at stake. #NATSEC100 https://natsec100.org/
