The emerging importance of the Headwaters Tech Hub (MSU is a key stakeholder) as a conduit to revitalize cutting-edge industrial capacity through federal grants and contracting awards ($41 million via HTH in 2024) ?? How to build on our community's national status as a premiere #photonics hub by academic and industry expansion into other critical tech: quantum, robotics, autonomy and artificial intelligence ?? How MSU is evolving its faculty, curriculum, facilities and mindset to deliver a next-gen workforce answering the industry needs of today and tomorrow Any and all are welcome at our recurring Reveal Rendezvous event series, hosted at the inimitable est.1864 Noir Bar in downtown Bozeman. #nationalsecurity #defensetechnology #farsight Tyler Merica Mark Sharpe Mike Veselik Les Craig Tim VanReken
