It’s Time to Googorola: Acquisition Finally Closes and Google’s Dennis Woodside Put in Charge
At long last, Google has completed its $12.5 billion cash purchase of Motorola Mobility, eight months after the deal was announced.
Director
Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA)
On July 20, 2009, Dugan became the first woman appointed Director of DARPA. DARPA's ongoing mission: to research, develop and demonstrate high-risk, high-payoff projects for the current and future combat force, prevent strategic surprises for the U.S., and create strategic surprises for its adversaries. Sounds pretty cool. Before taking over as Director, Dugan managed a diverse $100 million portfolio of programs for DARPA including an effort focused on the development of an advanced, field-portable system for detecting the explosive content of land mines. She also led a counterterrorism taskforce for the Deputy Secretary of Defense in 1999 (back before it was popular). When not working directly for the military, Dr. Dugan co-founded Dugan Ventures, a niche investment firm, which in turn founded RedXDefense, LLC, a company devoted to innovating solutions for combating explosive threats. She has received numerous awards for her accomplishments, including the prestigious Bronze deFleury medal by the Army Engineer Regiment. She was awarded her master's and bachelor's degrees from Virginia Tech and her doctorate degree in mechanical engineering from Cal Tech.
