The Joint Enterprise Technology Tool (JETT) is reshaping how innovators engage with the U.S. government’s chemical and biological defense community. Designed as a direct bridge between the Joint Program Executive Office for Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear Defense (JPEO-CBRND) and industry, JETT makes collaboration faster, clearer, and more impactful.
If you’re developing a technology that could enhance protection for the Joint Force, JETT is your entry point. The platform enables researchers, startups, and established companies alike to share their non-proprietary capabilities directly with U.S. government representatives—opening doors to meaningful conversations, potential partnerships, and strategic guidance.
A Platform Built for Collaboration
JETT isn’t a contracting or procurement portal—it’s a technology action platform. Its purpose is to facilitate early, exploratory discussions, ensuring that promising innovations are visible to decision-makers who shape the future of chemical and biological defense.
Once a submission is made, companies are connected to relevant offices within the Joint Chem Bio Enterprise. These engagements may lead to opportunities to:
- Align research and development with mission needs
- Explore non-dilutive funding pathways
- Identify complementary technologies or programs
- Receive feedback that informs commercial strategy
MIT Lincoln Laboratory’s Role
MIT Lincoln Laboratory has partnered with the Chemical and Biological Defense Program (CBDP) to encourage innovators—from early-stage startups to mature tech firms—to register their solutions through JETT. The collaboration aims to accelerate the transition of breakthrough technologies from concept to capability, matching commercial innovation with national defense priorities.
By submitting through JETT, companies gain a structured way to communicate with government stakeholders, discuss resource requirements, and explore collaboration models that align with both investor expectations and government mission timelines.
How to Get Started
Participation is simple:
- Visit JETT Portal.
- Share non-proprietary information about your company and technology.
- Engage directly with government representatives to identify potential collaboration opportunities.
JETT represents a new, open model for connecting the defense enterprise with the innovation ecosystem—fostering the next generation of technologies that protect both the warfighter and the world.
