The U.S. Navy is actively seeking partnerships with startups and is more open to collaboration than ever before, according to Navy Chief Technology Officer Justin Fanelli. Over the past two and a half years, Fanelli has been working to reduce bureaucracy and speed up the procurement process that has historically made it difficult for startups to work with the military. This effort is part of a broader push to enable the government to adopt technology more quickly and invest more strategically. Many of these collaborations are being facilitated through the Navy's 'innovation adoption kit,' a set of frameworks and tools designed to help promising technologies transition from prototype to production. Fanelli mentioned that the Navy is particularly interested in areas such as AI, alternative GPS, and the modernization of legacy systems, including air traffic control and ship-based technologies. He also noted a recent successful pilot deployment with the cybersecurity startup Via, moving from a Request for Proposal to deployment in under six months.
