Episode 13: Money and Might — Financing the Future of Defense

Defense spending is on the rise amid the ongoing conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East, and the United States is also looking to deter threats and avoid conflict elsewhere in the world. This has implications not only for traditional contractors but also for venture-backed companies that operate in the “defense tech” sector. Join Citi’s Rob Rowe, U.S. Regional Director of Research, and Jason Gursky, U.S. Aerospace & Defense Analyst, as they talk about the current spending priorities of the U.S. and its allies, how Silicon Valley is helping drive innovation in defense, and the importance of deploying assets in the ultimate high ground: space.
