Recorded live at the Reagan National Defense Forum, Jessica Jones and Jamil N. Jaffer sit down with Andy Lowery, CEO of Epirus. A retired Navy Lieutenant Commander and seasoned tech leader, Andy spearheads Epirus’s mission to develop cutting-edge directed energy systems that address modern defense challenges and advance U.S. defense modernization efforts.

What are directed energy technologies, like High Power Microwave (HPM) systems, and how are they reshaping defense modernization? What role do these systems play in countering emerging threats like drone swarms and enhancing battlefield capabilities? And what challenges remain in scaling these innovations and integrating them into legacy defense infrastructure?

Check out the answers to these questions and more in this special episode of CTRL+F!
