WOW! Just came across an amazing nugget of when all of the CIA / public sector collaboruption began. IN-Q-TEL was formed "to ensure that the CIA remains at the cutting edge of information technology advances and capabilities." Formed in 1998
The CIA had to offer Silicon Valley something of value, a business model that the Valley understood; a model that provides those who joined hands with In-Q-Tel the opportunity to commercialize their innovations.
