About Us
WHO WE ARE
Creative Defense Network
is a Public Benefit Corporation dedicated to enabling the acquisition transformation through the use of practical tools, training, and services.
WHAT WE DO
We enable the Department of Defense to deliver better warfighting capabilities faster — integrating the best capabilities from across the defense industrial base into lethal, composable kill webs.
WHO WE SERVE
We work with program offices, portfolio and acquisition executives, and industry partners who need to move at the speed of the threat.
CDN is co-founded in partnership with the non-profit Creative Defense Foundation which uniquely positions us to drive change across government and industry alike. We have a shared mission of harnessing entrepreneurial innovation and creative disruption for our common defense.
Meet The Team
OUR FOUNDERS
Pete Modigliani and Matt MacGregor are longtime acquisition professionals with over 50 years of experience in defense and intelligence community acquisition. We've worked in the trenches of program offices to the Pentagon at the Service and OSD headquarters levels.
We helped develop the Adaptive Acquisition Framework to include the Middle Tier of Acquisition and Software Acquisition Pathways. We've championed strategic reforms in defense acquisition, requirements, and budget processes. We've been a part of the Section 809 Panel, Atlantic Council Commissions on Defense Innovation Adoption and Software Defined Warfare, and the PPBE Reform Commission.
We've advised acquisition executives, PEOs, program managers, and defense industry executives on navigating and transforming the defense enterprise. We've also worked for War Unicorns — leading defense tech companies providing modern systems and services to the DoD.
Our focus is enabling acquisition professionals and industry to deliver superior warfighting solutions faster — integrating capabilities from multiple vendors into lethal kill webs that give the DoD a decisive advantage.
