I spent last week in Austin at the behest of the National Security Technology Accelerator and TheIncLab.
NSTXL is a non-profit that works across the Department of Defense helping to manage contracts and vendors. Last week they organized a pioneering multi-day event to bring leaders from virtual and augmented reality companies as well as government contractors, and various other technology companies together to consult with the US Army on their massive Synthetic Training Environment.
It was a fascinating event, and showed an impressive willingness on the part of the Army to bring in private industry to help shape the contours of this impressive global initiative.
