THE DURINDAL MANIFESTO
DefenseTech is flourishing, but it has a problem:
New tech doesn’t help until it’s fielded and used.
Many American defense innovations die at the stage of “great demo, no deployment.”
They die at the institutional, human and business bottlenecks.
And there are hundreds of founders out there with great ideas.
Many used to work for DoW, or for intelligence agencies.
Some of them used to be warfighters.
Others are great engineers.
And all of them have something in common:
They have the technical prowess and the government network,
yet they lack the business know-how needed to make a dual-use company thrive.
We believe that those founders should not waste years trying to catch up on a skillset that pulls them away from their core mission - helping American warfighters while producing breakthroughs that also benefit the commercial world.
Because their innovations shouldn't vanish in anonymity, we created Durindal with one goal: To serve warfighters by serving those who make their lives easier, more practical, and safer.
