Our very own partner, Brett Davis, wrote an article that was featured in The Cipher Brief this past Monday. His article is titled “Resilience, National Security and the Immediate Need for Action” and it focuses on the winning mindset and what it will take to spur innovation for our national security. Brett has over 34 years of government service, first as a Special Operations Officer in the Navy and then as a Senior Executive in the CIA. The Cipher Brief highlights and amplifies the nations leading voices on national security. The team at New North Ventures will be attending The Cipher Brief’s 2022 Threat Conference in Sea Island, GA on October 9-11th.
