Date/Time: Wednesday, April 5 at 3:00 – 4:00 pm ET
Webinar Description:
DIU’s Blue UAS program has made it easier for government agencies to procure commercial drone technology that’s cleared for use by the DoD. But it’s also created an ecosystem of drone component manufacturers that are pushing the envelope in the development of new technologies, collaborating to build powerful integrations and increasingly benefitting not only government customers, but commercial and industrial companies and the entire UAS industry. Join Doodle Labs, DIU and key Blue ecosystem technology leaders as they discuss the program, their drone innovations and where the industry is headed.

The Secret Sauce: A Conversation with DIU and ModalAI about Becoming Blue
The Defense Innovation Unit (DIU) Blue UAS Framework has taken on a life of its own. A logical outgrowth of the Department of Defense’s (DOD) need for modular, interoperable and cyber secure equipment and architectures, “Blue,” as we know it, was truly born when Congress passed Section 848 of the Fiscal Year 2020 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). That section essentially forbade the DOD from operating or procuring Chinese uncrewed aircraft systems (UAS) or related components.
