In this recent GP interview article, Ancram IRBD LLC Principal, Nancy (Taylor) Vailakis, speaks with Audere Capital's Peter N. Ackerson about the evolving world of #defensetech and how #globalsecurity and #modernwarfare are changing. While #governmentcontracts are the standard backdrop for such conversations, the pace of investment in key areas such as #renewableenergy generation and storage, #advancedcomputing & software, sensing, connectivity and security, and #spacetechnology have not only quickened in recent years, but have reframed the conversation entirely in some cases. Given the unescapable realities of the #geopolitical landscape, the conversation is critical. Many thanks to the team at Financial Investment News for providing the opportunity for this discussion and to Maggie Sprenger for the introduction to her partner at Audere Capital!
