Deputy Director Michael Madsen has served in that role in an acting capacity since then.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Under Secretary of Defense Heidi Shyu said during a March 23 House Armed Services Committee Cyber, Information Technologies and Innovation Subcommittee hearing that Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin will announce the director soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Former DIU head Mike Brown <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/pentagon\/2022\/05\/06\/defense-innovation-unit-chief-to-resign-in-september\/\" target=\"_blank\">announced last April he would step down<\/a> from the role at the end of his four-year term, despite being offered an opportunity to stay another year. When he left, he cited frustration with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/battlefield-tech\/2022\/05\/13\/pentagon-innovation-chief-pledges-support-for-diu-following-directors-departure\/\" target=\"_blank\">lack of support for the organization from Defense Department leadership.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Shyu said during the hearing DIU plays an important role in connecting non-traditional companies with military customers, noting that the fiscal 2024 budget, released March 13, includes a \u201csubstantial increase\u201d for the agency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A Pentagon spokesman told C4ISRNET the FY24 request includes nearly $105 million for DIU, up from the $69 million Congress approved last year. The budget also proposes $15 million for national security innovation capital funding and $21.5 million for the Pentagon\u2019s National Security Innovation Network, which also supports the unit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The organization has been without a formal leader since September
