Merging The Forge With AAIM Lab
The transaction will combine Core4ce’s innovation incubator, called The Forge, with Azimuth’s AAIM Lab, which stands for autonomy, AI and machine learning.
The combination of research and development efforts of AAIM Lab and The Forge will enable Core4ce to advance the development of new capabilities in autonomous systemms, predictive analytics and ML-driven sensors while accelerating the transition of new tech platforms from the research phase to operational deployment to support Department of Defense and Intelligence Community customers.
Core4ce CEO Mike Morehouse said Azimuth’s R&D, operations support, AI/ML and engineering capabilities make it a great addition to the company.
“By partnering with Azimuth, we’ll be able to reach a broader range of customers, offer an integrated suite of complementary services, and ensure that the warfighters defending our country have the best possible tools and support,” Morehouse added.
With the acquisition, Core4ce will now operate with nearly 650 employees focused on delivering data and cyber operations support to national security agency customers.
