The Army needs innovative and efficient solutions to problems. At the Association of the United States Army’s Annual Meeting and Exposition in Washington, D.C., Innovation Officer at the Army’s 3rd Infantry Division’s Marne Innovation Center (MIC) Capt. Brendan Shutt explained how the Army’s grassroots innovation model is transforming problem-solving.
The center embeds innovation directly into training environments, sourcing problems from soldiers in real time and involves warfighters firsthand in innovation. He said its soldier-driven, agile approach offers a compelling blueprint for future battlefield innovation and efficiency.
Shutt described challenges with scaling solutions across the Army, but said partnerships with academia provide fresh perspectives, technical bandwidth and can support more complex projects involving AI and autonomous systems.
