Civil-Military Innovation Institute Inc.

The Civil-Military Innovation Institute (CMI2) is a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit that bridges the gaps in defense innovation, creating functional solutions to support the warfighter with immediate impact and effect. We call it ‘Innovation in the Dirt™,’ a frontline approach to fostering military modernization.

CMI2 offers management capabilities such as senior military expertise, university innovation, and commercial research. CMI2 supports the idea of creating and utilizing a dynamic civil-military innovation workforce in partnership with the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) and public safety communities.

CMI2 builds close relationships with military units and service members to understand requirements, the  cornerstone of our work. So, CMI2 team members are embedded with Soldiers and warfighters at installations nationwide.
