MilTech is a collaboration of MSU TechLink and the Montana Manufacturing Center (MMEC) that leverages the expertise of both organizations to accelerate the transition of new technology to the U.S. warfighter and first responder.

MilTech leverages TechLink's technology transfer activities to help companies transition innovative technology to Department of Defense operational use more quickly, reliably, and cost-effectively. This partnership works through DoD Program Managers to assist their vendors in commercializing new defense-related technology.

MilTech provides critical engineering, manufacturing and business development assistance to these companies. The program lowers the cost and cycle time of technology acquisition, supports design improvements when needed, and helps with sustainability allowing DoD to more fully benefit from its R&D funding to US small business.
