Mission
Palmer Luckey once said "...what would it look like to build a company that could take those bright people out of the advertising industry, out of the search engine optimization industry, out of the augmented reality mustache Emoji industry (Silicon Valley/Alley) and put them to work on things that were more important...where really smart people could work on National Security problems and work on the technology that is going to keep our values safe".We're here to do just that. With our extensive network and experience within Silicon Valley/Alley talent acquisition...we're on a mission to bring those bright minds to the DeepTech, NewSpace & DefenseTech Industries so they can make a real difference.
