MITRE Engenuity & The Accelerator

MITRE Engenuity & The Accelerator

MITRE Engenuity, our tech foundation for public good, galvanizes cross-sector innovation critical to the economy, national security, and prosperity of the U.S. and our allies. The Accelerator, a division of MITRE, stewards Engenuity—scaling our technology and capabilities for private-sector adoption and to benefit the public.

The goal: tackle large-scale technical challenges that lack a single owner yet affect many—cybersecurity, 5G/NextG, and more. We do this by connecting stakeholders who would normally compete, amplifying the strengths of industry, start-ups, investors, and academia. This approach supports our sponsors’ missions and bolsters American resilience amid growing strategic competition and global events. The result? Generational impact.
