From May 20-24, Special Representative for Global Partnerships Dorothy McAuliffe and Science and Technology Adviser to the Secretary of State Patricia Gruber will lead a “Deep Tech Inclusion” Partnership Opportunity Delegation (POD) to London, United Kingdom. The trip will foster business-government and business-business partnerships between emerging technology companies and research institutions in the United States and the United Kingdom with an emphasis on fields relevant to national security — artificial intelligence (AI), quantum technology, and synthetic biology.
