Public-Private Partnership to Reimagine Defense Innovation Education

Overview

A consortium of partners, led by SVDG and UC San Diego, are proposing to strengthen U.S. Joint Professional Military Education. To help the U.S. compete with rival great powers, we are enlisting the innovative expertise of Silicon Valley alongside experts in academia and finance to educate both civilian and military students on concepts of Innovation, National Security, and Geo-economics. This will be a ten-year effort aimed at launching new curricula, PhD programs, and thought leadership. Next Steps: Over the next 10 months, we are working on building the coalition of allies required to reform JPME systemwide and are developing learning prototypes that can subsequently scale.
