Corey Bolka brings nearly 20 years of experience leading intelligence and operations in support of joint and coalition missions across CENTCOM, EUCOM and PACOM. He has advised senior U.S. and partner-nation leaders in fast-paced, high-stakes environments and now he’s bringing that expertise to Accel Innovation Corporation. 

Bolka’s experience includes leading USAF wing-level intelligence operations and managing teams of up to 30 analysts, delivering strategic and operational intelligence briefings to senior U.S. and allied leaders, coordinating multinational intelligence engagements as a certified Foreign Disclosure Officer and designing and teaching intelligence training to over 1,600 officers as a certified instructor.
