Anduril Industries , a defense tech start-up, raised $1.5 billion, making the company valued at $14 billion, co-led by Founders Fund , which is Peter Thiel 's venture capital firm , and Sands Capital . Anduril now joins a small, elite group of high-valued defense companies like Lockheed Martin .
And probably most interestingly, it's becoming clear that the character of warfare is changing significantly due to emerging technology. So what I think you're going to see more often is partnerships between the traditional primes and venture backed start ups because I think that's what the defense department wants, these venture backed start ups, you know, some of them could get acquired, some of them, um, could try and test the public markets.
So my personal view is that the government needs to be much more aggressive in adopting emerging technologies and particular in adopting commercial technologies which have uh evolved much more rapidly than those in the defense arena.
