The NSIN Propel New York 2023, a collaboration with the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) Information Directorate, the premier research organization for command, control, communications, computers, and intelligence (C4I) and cyber technologies for the U.S. Air Force (USAF), includes a cohort of ten startups focusing on resilient basing, moving target engagement and operationally focused Advanced Battle Management Systems (ABMS).
Startups in the NSIN Propel New York cohort will enable technology solutions that are prime for adaptation to address the operational imperatives of the USAF and the broader U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) community.
The accelerator aims to lower barriers to entering the defense industrial base for companies by attracting investment from trusted private capital and government end-users seeking further engagement with members of the cohort.
