The Army is borrowing techniques from venture capital to move promising technologies from ideas to capabilities soldiers can actually use

Innovation--it's what everyone seems to want yet it also seems hard to get. The Army created FUZE to help move promising technologies from concept to fielded capability while keeping readiness at the center of the process.

Not every technology succeeds, and the Army can't afford to pursue every promising idea indefinitely. Army FUZE is built around making difficult decisions about scaling winners and walking away from efforts that aren't delivering results.
