About Defense Innovation Unit
The Defense Innovation Unit (DIU) was started in August 2015 to rebuild the department's relationship with the commercial technology sector. As one of the first "experimental" innovation organizations, DIU connects its DoD partners with leading commercial technology companies. DIU is the only DOD organization focused exclusively on fielding and scaling commercial technology across the U.S. military at commercial speeds. DIU is primarily focused on five technology areas where the commercial sector is operating at the leading edge: AI, autonomy, cyber, human systems, and space.
