Synopsis

This book explores the development of innovative technology within the US military, particularly the role of small businesses and entrepreneurs. The author, a congressman with decades of experience on the House Armed Services Committee, examines the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program and concludes that it has been vital for the development of cutting-edge technologies. The book argues that small, innovative companies often produce superior products at lower costs and with greater agility than larger, established companies. The author also highlights the challenges faced by small businesses in navigating the complex defense procurement system and proposes several reforms to make it more accessible and equitable. Ultimately, this book sheds light on the importance of supporting small businesses in the defense sector and provides valuable insights for policymakers, industry leaders, and anyone interested in the future of military technology.
