Michael Bloomberg, former New York City mayor and Democratic presidential candidate, has been nominated to serve as the chair of the Defense Innovation Board, a Defense Department spokesperson announced.
"Mr. Bloomberg ... will bring a wealth of experience in technology, innovation, business and government to the Defense Innovation Board," said Pentagon press secretary John Kirby.
The Defense Innovation Board was created in 2016 as an independent panel to advise senior Pentagon leaders on what they say are "three focus areas: people and culture, technology and capabilities, and practices and operations."
