Join Dcode on Thursday, August 28 at 3:30pm ET for a session with Brigadier General Troy Denomy, Army Program Executive Officer Soldier, focused on how startups and nontraditional companies can engage with the Army’s modernization priorities and contribute to delivering next-generation soldier systems.
PEO Soldier is charged with equipping America’s soldiers with the gear, systems, and technology they need to be more protected and more connected on the battlefield. From protective equipment to integrated soldier systems, the office manages a broad portfolio with direct impact on operational readiness and soldier safety.
In this Nexus session, BG Denomy will provide an inside look at PEO Soldier’s mission, priorities, and ongoing programs - and how private sector companies, especially nontraditional firms, can effectively engage with the organization.
We’ll cover:
- PEO Soldier’s Role and Mission – How the office fits into the Army’s acquisition ecosystem and its modernization priorities.
- Opportunities for Industry – Where innovative commercial technologies can align with current and future soldier needs.
- Pathways for Engagement – How nontraditional vendors can connect with PEO Soldier and navigate defense acquisition processes.
- What PEO Soldier Looks for in Partners – Key attributes, capabilities, and readiness factors that signal a strong fit.
This is a unique opportunity for startups and the broader defense innovation community to hear directly from the leader responsible for delivering soldier systems to the field.
