Dave McCormick plays matchmaker for hundreds of defense companies

CARLISLE, Pennsylvania — Hundreds of defense companies traveled to the Army War College outside of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, for the Defense and Innovation Summit on Tuesday looking to learn more about new opportunities to partner with one another and the Department of War to benefit the military.

Sen. Dave McCormick (R-PA) hosted the summit, and his staff set up meetings for the roughly 250 companies that requested it in a “speed dating” setup to give the organization leaders the chance to get to know one another and see if there were opportunities for collaboration, a staffer for the senator told the Washington Examiner.
