28 Feb Discuss why it is important to leverage innovation and collaboration relationships with the private sector
The Office of Innovation and Collaboration is the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Science and Technology (S&T) Directorate’s conduit to a broad network of external partners. It provides the homeland security community outreach and access to partnerships with world-class subject matter experts, resources, and innovative tools.
Discuss why it is important to leverage innovation and collaboration relationships with the private sector. Do you believe DHS should prioritize providing federal funding for colleges and universities or grants to private businesses for emerging technologies related research? Why, or why not? Explain your rationale.
