Results of the survey so stay tuned. So let me set the stage for a few minutes on a project on cyber enabled Economic Warfare really got started. It really had its genesis back in the 1990s in discussions with incredible smart people at the Smith Richardson foundation that is sponsored this work, but the intersection of economic and security. In 1997 the Asian Financial crisis it, remember . Began in thailand and the contagion quickly spread to indonesia, south korea, malaysia, the countrys throughout the region. Foreign debt to gdp ratios rose over 180 during the worst of the crisis. Writes occur, governments fell. The causes of the crisis were varied but most experts think it was the combination of crony capitalism, and economic bubble flooding the market with cheap money, and a simultaneous slump in semiconductor values with the rise in u.

Im a soldier and defense fellow though my remarks are my own here. Would i like to see if i can get remarks specifically as they relate to 3d printing and energetic materials.
