"We closed today officially with a $1.9m investment into a company you referred us just 10 weeks ago. Thanks for all your help. We would never have learned about that company, and a few others that we are tracking now, without the hard work from you and your team at American Security Challenge."

"I've been involved in evaluating technologies for decades. The ASC platform has mastered the art of efficiently collecting the right amount and type of company data, in combination with a smart but simple standardized scoring system that is ultimately captured in an easy to use and sort database as well, perhaps better than any evaluation management system I've been a party to.”

“The American Security Challenge addresses a spectrum of security challenges. It’s rare that we get to cross pollinate with DOD or other defense companies and share ideas as we don’t normally talk with each other.”
