About the Homeland Security Startup Studio

The Homeland Security Startup Studio is designed to accelerate and deliver commercial applications of federally funded technologies that meet homeland security needs. This innovative program forms teams of entrepreneurs and pairs them with ground-breaking technologies to assess their commercialization potential. Entrepreneurs work hand-in-hand with lab scientists and inventors and explore forming companies around those technologies to solve the real-world problems of government and commercial customers.
