Christian Brose
Industry Leadership
Christian Brose cemented his position as one of the leading thinkers in the defense technology arena in 2020 with the publication of his book “The Kill Chain: Defending America in the Future of High-Tech Warfare.” Prior to that, he spent nearly a decade working with Sen. John McCain in a few different roles, supporting the Senate Armed Services Committee in overseeing the national defense budget, programs, and policies, and learning how large the need for defense innovation in the U.S. is. Now as chief strategy officer with Anduril, a venture-backed defense tech firm focused on autonomous systems and modern, software-driven military applications, he’s working to build technologies that solve the most important defense problems from the outside in.
