The good and the beautiful go together
Recognizing the beautiful is a timeless way to identify the good
So if you want to convince people that what you’re building is good, make it beautiful
Amca presents The Great American Egg Drop in collaboration with @neros_tech.
We are calling on LA’s finest to participate in an engineering competition in which teams will build a contraption that drops and glides an egg from Archer, a Neros drone.
The team whose egg travels the longest distance horizontally without breaking will be crowned the winner.
The competition will begin promptly at 6pm on Thursday, Oct 15 in El Segundo during #LAtechweek.
More details and RSVP link below.
America’s critical supply chain won’t be fixed by a single player. It’s a collective effort that will require co-investment and collaboration between the public and private sectors.
Our CEO, Jai Malik, joined Jeffrey Frankston (Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary of War, Industrial Base Resilience), Andy Magliochetti (Deputy Assistant for the Defense Industrial Base, US Department of the Navy), Rolf Zeising (General Atomics), and Bryan Clark (Senior Fellow and Director, Hudson Institute) yesterday afternoon at the @HudsonInstitute, to discuss how we can come together to form a stronger, more resilient defense industrial base.

It's a miracle America designed its original jets, missiles, and ships by hand. Much of that engineering expertise hasn't been written down and lives in the supply chain.
We're creating a new way to engineer anything for these systems, trained on disappearing tribal knowledge.
Thousands of pressure switches go into our country's aircraft. Not having even one switch puts the entire mission at risk.
When a customer needed a new pressure switch re-designed on an urgent timeline, our engineer Kurt took on the challenge. He developed, built and tested it in under a month.

Feels like we're entering another golden era of web design. Well done @dayjobstudios (for @AmcaInc)
I'm excited to announce that @AmcaInc has raised a $300M Series B at a >$1B valuation, led by @CaffeinatedCap with major support from @LightspeedVP, @a16z, @Lux_Capital, and others.
We're on a mission to reconstitute a supply chain that has too often put profit over country.

The Protestant Reformation was probably the most destructive event humanity ever has or ever will experience and virtually everything wrong with the world today can be traced to the logically consistent application of its principles.

Exciting news: Aerospace Control Products, a manufacturer for Boeing, Airbus, and defense programs for 45 years, is joining @AmcaInc.
This is our third acquisition since we launched earlier this year and another step forward for our team.
With it, we grow to 100+ people, add our first factory outside California, and expand our capacity to ship new hydraulic components for both old and new aircraft.
I started Amca because I believed our country's aerospace and defense manufacturing base was fragile. Everything I've learned since then suggests it's even weaker than it looked. Our near-term goal is to reduce our customers' supply chain risk, so they can field new manned and unmanned systems at a speed we haven't seen in decades.

lunch was egg salad sandwiches with tomato jam and baby greens on homemade brioche, sweet & spicy pickles, and some sexy fruit on ice

American manufacturing is built on small companies with big personalities.
This is the story of Candy Suits, a Beverly Hills model and Icelandic weather presenter turned defense CEO. She’s been manufacturing cockpit panels for fighter jets since the 1980s.
