This Success After Service (SAS) episode features Daniel Gomez, Founder & CEO of First Person Xperience and 23-year Army veteran, returning to GovCon Unscripted for a high-level discussion on modern warfare, doctrine, AI disruption, and the power of simulation-based training.
From EFP innovation in Iraq to drone warfare in Ukraine and generative AI shaping perception in real time, Danny breaks down why technology alone doesn’t win wars, humans do.
This conversation explores:
• Why military planning is fundamentally storytelling
• How simulation and “fictitious play” prepare leaders for chaos
• Why doctrine must evolve, but carefully
• The psychological impact of information warfare
• What GovCon leaders can learn from battlefield adaptability
If you operate in federal contracting, national defense, or emerging tech—this episode reframes how you think about risk, innovation, and strategic decision-making.
