Palmer Luckey is the founder of Anduril Industries, a defense technology company transforming national security through advanced systems that integrate artificial intelligence, autonomy, and cutting-edge hardware and software. His mission: to equip American and allied warfighters with the tools they need to operate as true superheroes on the battlefield.
A visionary entrepreneur and pioneer in immersive technology, Palmer first gained recognition as the founder of Oculus VR and creator of the Oculus Rift, which helped revive and redefine the modern virtual reality industry. Today, he brings that same bold, disruptive approach to defense—bridging Silicon Valley innovation with mission-critical military capabilities.
At the forefront of modernizing the defense industrial base, Palmer is reshaping how governments approach procurement, strategy, and technological agility in an increasingly complex global environment. His work is redefining the intersection of defense, innovation, and democratic values in the New Frontier.
