MITRE

Stronger collaboration between allies starts with bringing together the people, ideas, and technologies that advance our shared priorities.   It was a pleasure to welcome Mr. Seiichiro Takahashi, Consul General of Japan in Boston, and members of his staff to MITRE’s Bedford campus to explore opportunities to deepen technology and innovation ties between Japan and the United States.   Our discussions and laboratory tours focused on six priority technology areas where MITRE brings deep technical expertise and leadership: artificial intelligence/physical AI, quantum, semiconductors, bio/healthcare, nuclear fusion, and space.   During the visit, Consul General Takahashi introduced the Japan-New England Nexus for Innovation (J-NEXUS), an initiative to strengthen Japan-U.S. innovation collaboration by connecting researchers, industry, startups, and institutions across New England and Japan. We look forward to continued partnership and opportunities to advance shared technology, innovation, and national security priorities.

Understanding where today's Advanced Driver Assistance Systems perform differently in the real world is an important step toward improving tomorrow's systems. The latest report from the Partnership for Analytics Research in Traffic Safety (PARTS) uses vehicle equipment data from automakers and police-reported crash data to identify conditions that warrant further research, including older drivers, curved and winter roadways, interactions with teenage non-motorists, and more complex lane configurations.

Meeting today’s national security challenges requires the ability to connect innovation, mission needs, and disparate organizations — and quickly move the right capabilities into operational use. The MITRE-led National Security Engineering Center (NSEC) FFRDC does just that. Through threats, wars, technological change, and urgent operational demand, NSEC works with government, industry, and the military acquisition and technical communities to accelerate capabilities, strengthen decision-making, and deliver measurable advantages to the warfighter. Today, our work includes advances in integrated air and missile defense, strategic non-kinetic effects, advanced AI applications, acquisition transformation, command-and-control networks, and mission engineering. See how NSEC rapidly translates innovation into mission impact. #NationalSecurity #Innovation

National Aviation Day serves as a reminder that aviation progress depends on bold ideas and disciplined innovation. At MITRE, that’s our mission. We apply deep technical expertise to help improve aviation safety, modernize air traffic management, strengthen the resilience of the national airspace system, and prepare for the future of flight. As aviation continues to evolve, #TeamMITRE is proud to work with government and industry to solve complex challenges to help deliver a safer, more efficient, and more adaptable air transportation system. #NationalAviationDay #FutureOfFlight #AviationInnovation

Protecting our nation’s critical infrastructure requires collaboration across government and industry. #TeamMITRE is proud to support the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) the NIST National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence (NCCoE) in advancing practical cybersecurity solutions that help water and wastewater utilities strengthen their resilience against evolving threats.

Connected vehicle data could help researchers better understand crashes, evaluate safety technologies, and improve roadway safety — but it can also include sensitive and proprietary information. Our new paper explores how a trusted framework could enable responsible access to vehicle-specific telematics data for independent safety research while protecting privacy, cybersecurity, and intellectual property. http://spklr.io/6043ER3iF #TransportationSafety #ConnectedVehicles #VehicleSafety #DataPrivacy

To mark America’s 250th, we asked #TeamMITRE to share how their work contributes to our nation’s future. Check out the latest issue of MITRE 360: https://ow.ly/rOZM50Zz1Kh #newsletter #America250

Meeting today’s mission challenges requires more than breakthrough technologies — it requires leaders who can connect engineering excellence with real-world impact. Throughout his 25 years at MITRE, Glenn Daly has helped federal agency sponsors address some of the nation’s most complex national security challenges. By bringing together multidisciplinary teams, he has advanced capabilities for the joint warfighter, strengthened homeland security, and accelerated innovation across the intelligence community. As MITRE’s new VP of the Center for Engineering and Analysis, Glenn will lead the evolution of systems engineering by advancing modeling, analysis, experimentation, AI, and emerging technologies to deliver mission-ready solutions faster. His leadership will further strengthen MITRE’s ability to help sponsors navigate an increasingly complex technology landscape while maintaining the technical rigor and objective expertise they depend on. Join us in congratulating Glenn on his new role. http://spklr.io/6045EuLLf #Leadership #SystemsEngineering #TeamMITRE

Strengthening the warfighting industrial base requires stronger collaboration across government, industry, and our nation’s allies and partners. At MITRE’s Beyond Barriers: Acquisition on a War Footing summit, government, industry, and research leaders came together to explore practical approaches for translating the Department of War's acquisition transformation strategy into action. Building on those discussions, our latest paper offers 27 recommendations to help strengthen international acquisition, improve supply chain resilience, and accelerate the delivery of critical capabilities. International Cooperation to Expand the Industrial Base and Enable Burden Sharing explores opportunities to: ▪️Unify global demand and strengthen defense supply chains ▪️Build a stronger, more resilient industrial base ▪️Improve production, sustainment, IP protection, and interoperability ▪️Modernize the Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA) and Foreign Military Sales (FMS) for wartime readiness 🔗http://spklr.io/6047EuSJc
