The XVIII Airborne Corps announced this morning in a press release that it welcomes all military services to compete in Episode Six of “Dragon’s Lair,” a shark-tank style, innovation challenge.
Dragon’s Lair provides an opportunity for service members to competitively propose ideas, policies and innovations to the benefit of XVIII Airborne Corps and the Army.
“Good ideas reside everywhere across the military,” Army Col. Joe Buccino, the XVIII Airborne Corps public affairs officer said. “Innovations are not limited to soldiers; service members across the force solve inefficiencies in their daily lives. We want to uplift and resource those innovations for the greater good.”
The first episode of Dragon’s Lair launched in 2020, and the winning innovator for Episode Five, 1st Lt. Mahdi Al-Husseini, was announced in September.
The deadline for submitting an idea to the National Security Innovation website is Nov. 15. Ideas can be submitted here.
From there, the XVIII Airborne Corps Innovation team, Project Ridgway, will select five applicants to pitch their ideas on Dec. 6 at Fort Bragg.
