The United States Defense and Security (US DoD) market has been dominated by legacy providers for decades. With the constant and rapid evolution of advanced technologies, coupled with the military’s goal of increasing flexibility at lower costs, start-up companies are aiming to disrupt the market in several areas.
After reviewing this research service, the reader should be familiar with the new companies and technologies that have a high probability of changing the paradigm that the US military uses to select partners and executes contracts. The reader will also understand where growth opportunities exist and how those growth opportunities can be exploited to benefit investors and/or companies that wish to partner with those profiled.
Research Scope
The overall aim of this research is to provide an evaluation of companies and technologies that have the most potential for disrupting a market that has seen very little change over the years, with respect to the most influential solutions providers.
Research Highlights
The study provides an overview and analysis of 9 significant start-ups that have a high potential for disrupting the defense market in 2020 and beyond. The company profiles include information about their financial situation, infrastructure, technological development, products, and their general ability to succeed in the market. Many of the companies are still in the seed and development phase, but have cultivated robust technological capabilities and business plans. Most have also demonstrated the usefulness and utility of their products; some have even obtained contracts from the US DoD.
