Forming part of our MBA Future Business, the DEP is a landmark program that will see students learn how to use modern innovation tools and techniques to address real national security and intelligence issues. It is based on the Hacking for Defense ® (H4D) program created in the US in 2016 by Steve Blank, founder of the Lean Startup movement; Joe Felter, a retired Army Colonel; and Peter Newell, CEO of BMNT.

This specialised industry entrepreneurial program is focused on helping small to medium enterprises address business challenges using advanced manufacturing tools and techniques – also known as industry 4.0. It combines the best of the university’s world-class advanced manufacturing and prototyping capabilities with access to academics and researchers, and will feature interactive workshops, coaching, technical support, mentor guidance and more.
