The Future of Innovation, Business and Defense
An update on General Atomics and the challenges facing the world—from Linden Blue, Vice Chairman
General Atomics has been on the forefront of defense, and energy technologies. As a leading defense innovator, General Atomics has had a part in changing warfare with the Predator Unmanned Aerial System. It is also a technical leader in nuclear fusion and fission and high powered electromagnetics. As the former CEO of Beech Aircraft and GM of Learjet, Mr. Blue has also been a visionary in civilian aviation. He is a founder of Spectrum Aeronautical, which is pioneering advances in next-generation production techniques for composite aircraft.
Come spend the evening with Mr. Blue as he shares his thoughts on the future of energy, capitalism and the challenges of the next few decades. Mr. Blue will focus on:
· Technologies and ubiquitous information and what they mean–with opportunities for everyone.
· The great challenges that go along with the opportunities—particularly to the US.
· Better ideas for governance and likely scenarios for the next few decades.
Mr. Blue will discuss his views by sharing his unique experience, foresight and lessons learned in a small setting of the CommNexus Industry Leaders series.
