Glenn’s experience also includes developing artificial intelligence in areas from drone autonomy and swarming to cognitive communication systems and deep-learning network operating systems. Glenn’s technical accomplishments span multiple industries including prototyping an artificial intelligence operating system and atmospheric sensing analytics for a $2B satellite constellation; developing modular open systems and standards for the Navy and commercial entities; building a wireless low latency network for high speed trading; developing and delivering an Android app for a new search and rescue radio; designing unmanned aircraft navigation and communication systems for a major aerospace manufacturer; creating a national growth plan for several non-profits; designing dual-use technology transfer mechanisms for federal labs and developing strategic growth and go-to-market plans for dozens of start-ups and small businesses. His clients and customers cover numerous industries including space systems, satellites, aviation, telecommunications, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, government, robotics, unmanned aerial vehicles, agriculture, professional sports, app software, marketing, occupational therapy, and information technology. At L3Harris Technologies his roles included the Director of Strike and Air Warfare in Salt Lake City, UT, where his portfolio encompassed collaborative warfare concepts including assured networks, electronic warfare, and positioning, navigation and timing capabilities for weapons, aircraft and ships. He also served as Director of Commercial Products for L3T Communication Systems Group (CSG), leading commercial sector growth across CSG’s 14 divisions and $2B of annual revenue. Glenn leveraged L3T’s leadership in advanced technology to drive innovations in telecom, aviation, wireless, satellites and related markets. His “5G Partner” program, which successfully paired start-ups and small businesses with L3H’s ability to scale, delivering new communications ecosystems and revolutionary technology. Glenn’s innovative approach to commercial market entry and successful partnerships across multiple industries were recognized with L3H’s Presidential Achievement Award. While working as a Navy civilian, Glenn led research, development, and testing of advanced aerospace systems for over 20 years at the Naval Air Systems Command in Patuxent River, Maryland. He spent over a decade developing unmanned combat aircraft for DARPA and the DoD, including his Chief Architect role for Navy UCAS, which was awarded the Collier Trophy. His joint program assignments included the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter, member of the Low Observable Working Group with B-2, F-22, F-35 and UCAS, several efforts with the Air Force Research Lab, and serving as the Chief Engineer for the Joint Precision Approach and Landing System (JPALS) program, for which he won the 2002 Defense Standardization Award. Glenn led the development of the first dual-use military and commercial differential GPS receiver, the first military Mode S receiver, and was co-inventor of the Naval Avionics Platform Integration Emulator (NAPIE) in 1995. From the Joint Unmanned Combat Air System to the MQ-25A, Glenn has designed a number of novel wireless networking concepts including satellite-based communications, advanced queuing, hybrid physical layers, safety of flight applications and tactical multicast techniques. Glenn’s broad international experience includes a six-year assignment supporting the United Nations as the DoD Representative to the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) as well as serving as the US Head of Delegation to two committees under the NATO Command, Control and Communications (C3) Board. Glenn served on the Board of Directors for the Telecom Council of Silicon Valley and for the Cottonwood Heights UT Business Association, and is a past President of the AUVSI Mountain West Chapter. He obtained his Bachelor’s in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Virginia and is a graduate of the US Navy Test Pilot School.
