As governments around the world increasingly look to technology to help address critical missions, they are leveraging new methods and tools to discover and partner with startups, emerging and non-traditional firms.  Whether it is NATO in Europe or Air Force in the US addressing national security missions or cities across the world-building “smart cities”, challenges, prize competitions and “other transaction authorities” are quickly becoming the norm. The results: less cost, faster deployment of solutions, and more innovation.
