Description
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency's (DARPA) mission is to create technological surprise for national security, which drives its Research and Development (R&D) programs to transform revolutionary concepts into practical capabilities for the military and civilian society. Under DARPA�s Commercial Solutions Opening (DCSO), DARPA seeks to close military and civilian capability gaps with commercial solutions derived from the Agency's R&D programs. This DCSO is solicited by DARPA Commercial Strategy within the Director�s Office. The Commercial Strategy team oversees the implementation of the DCSO, which includes the Embedded Entrepreneurship Initiative (EEI). The EEI, through the DCSO, awards participants with funds to support bringing in an embedded entrepreneur (EE) to assist performers with commercialization and business efforts. Proposals for the DCSO are solicited for transitioning and commercializing innovative solutions derived from DARPA R&D-funded technologies into capabilities that fulfill requirements, close capability gaps, or provide new technological advancements. DARPA reasonably anticipates meaningful proposals with varying technical, scientific, and business approaches in response to this DCSO.
