Hidden Level's Co-Founder and CEO Jeff Cole is interviewed by Ernestine Fu Mak. Hidden Level specializes in stealthy, passive radar technology that provides real-time monitoring of manned and unmanned aerial vehicles — including covert “dark drones.” Unlike traditional radar, their systems do not emit detectable signals, making them harder for adversaries to detect while remaining compliant with privacy laws. —— This session is part of the “Silicon Valley & The U.S. Government” speaker series co-led by Ernestine Fu Mak, Steve Blank, Joe Felter, Eric Volmar, and Steve Bowsher. Silicon Valley collaborations with the U.S. government have led to some of the most important technologies in our society. Driven by visionary leaders, these collaborations have overcome regulatory, business, and technological challenges to achieve exceptional innovation. The results of these innovations have addressed national issues and societal challenges. As government and industry collaboration is more important than ever to accelerate private sector innovation and shape the future of technology, join us in hearing the personal accounts of technology experts, business executives, and public service leaders who have paved the way.
