On Saturday, U.S. Senator Todd Young (R-Ind.) spoke at the Reagan National Defense Forum, an annual event that brings together key national security leaders and stakeholders.
Senator Young participated in a panel discussion on how to modernize our nation’s defense capabilities best. He spoke on the urgent need to out-innovate and out-compete the Chinese Communist Party in biotechnology and artificial intelligence to ensure America’s warfighters maintain a technological edge and American families are safe. Senator Young also previewed the upcoming findings and recommendations of the National Security Commission on Emerging Biotechnology, which he serves as Chair of.

Allvin, Chief of Staff, U.S. Air Force; Joe Lonsdale, Co-Founder and Managing Partner, 8VC; Heidi Shyu, U.S. Undersecretary of Defense for Research and Engineering; and Toni Townes-Whitley, CEO, SAIC.
