WEBVTT 00:00.340 --> 00:02.562 Hi , I'm brian car and I'm the director 00:02.562 --> 00:04.784 of innovation for POC three I . N . N . 00:05.140 --> 00:06.862 And working with my innovation 00:06.862 --> 00:09.029 counterparts in P . E . O . Digital in 00:09.029 --> 00:11.029 Crows . We have partnered with mass 00:11.029 --> 00:12.807 challenge to develop the ban ki 00:12.807 --> 00:14.862 training course focused on providing 00:14.862 --> 00:17.084 education on the innovation ecosystem . 00:17.084 --> 00:18.807 Two team hands comes workforce 00:18.807 --> 00:21.029 throughout the program . We're going to 00:21.029 --> 00:22.918 touch upon a number of innovative 00:22.918 --> 00:25.084 topics that range from a half works in 00:25.084 --> 00:27.362 the FBI . Our process to the D . O . D . 00:27.362 --> 00:29.418 Contracting toolkit to understanding 00:29.418 --> 00:31.418 small business and venture capitals 00:31.418 --> 00:33.307 perspective . Ultimate goal is to 00:33.307 --> 00:35.251 understand how industry thinks and 00:35.251 --> 00:37.930 operates do then arm our airmen on how 00:37.930 --> 00:39.930 to work with them and get to yes 00:39.940 --> 00:42.330 quicker . So our divisional leadership 00:42.340 --> 00:45.410 had presented the banshee program as a 00:45.410 --> 00:47.470 new opportunity to be able to engage 00:47.470 --> 00:51.430 with industry , especially our kind 00:51.430 --> 00:53.319 of non traditional small business 00:53.319 --> 00:55.319 contractors for any of our upcoming 00:55.319 --> 00:57.590 acquisitions . So I saw the Banshee 00:57.600 --> 00:59.711 training program as an opportunity to 00:59.711 --> 01:01.822 kind of dive more into the innovation 01:01.822 --> 01:03.433 side . I wanted to take this 01:03.433 --> 01:05.489 opportunity to see what we can do is 01:05.489 --> 01:07.489 the government to engage with these 01:07.489 --> 01:09.656 small businesses and make that process 01:09.656 --> 01:09.080 a little less cumbersome . I was 01:09.080 --> 01:10.858 intending to use the skills and 01:10.858 --> 01:12.747 resources gained from the banshee 01:12.747 --> 01:14.747 program to better advise my program 01:14.747 --> 01:16.524 offices for any of our upcoming 01:16.524 --> 01:19.420 acquisitions . The people that have 01:19.420 --> 01:21.500 given us sort of a briefing of what 01:21.500 --> 01:23.870 they do so far . I've already gone back 01:23.870 --> 01:27.180 and said , Hey , you know , X Group , I 01:27.180 --> 01:29.670 know you do blank and we had someone 01:29.670 --> 01:31.837 talked to us today , would you like to 01:31.837 --> 01:34.070 sort of meet up with them already ? I'm 01:34.070 --> 01:36.070 starting to , you know , make those 01:36.070 --> 01:37.681 connections for people in my 01:37.681 --> 01:40.710 organization and that was , you know , 01:40.710 --> 01:43.430 a big part of my goal . So I was really 01:43.430 --> 01:45.541 happy to be able to do that already . 01:45.541 --> 01:47.630 For one of the groups to learn more 01:47.630 --> 01:49.574 about the Banshee program , please 01:49.574 --> 01:51.360 visit the address listed on your screen .
