Fantastic piece Steve. Bush’s role was vital, he was a translator between the scientists and the governments, a vital role as you know well in corporate innovation. This video is also great: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZTC_RxWN_xo
Bush also pioneered the idea of universities charging overhead on government contracts, up to 40% in some instances, which some have attributed to the rise of the modern research university (and by proxy, US supremacy in university-based R&D.)
All US tech roads can be traced back to Vannevar Bush!
Fascinating. I think your statement about doing things outside the government because the government couldn't do it holds true today.
