Regina E. Dugan Biography

Regina E. Dugan is one of the most popular and richest Engineer who was born on March 19, 1963 in New York, United States. Dugan, who left DARPA to become a special adviser for the Vice Chief Of Staff of the United States Army in 2000, was formerly with DARPA. One of her projects was a Quick Reaction Study on Countermine. This study was presented to the Joint Chiefs of Staff. It was then implemented in Operation Enduring Freedom. Dugan was also a member of the Threat Reduction Agency, Naval Research Advisory Committee and Technology panel. Dugan Ventures was her first venture. In 2005, Dugan Ventures began a new investment, RedXDefense LLC.

The Undersecretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics, Ashton Carter, and the Department of Defense, General Counsel, Jeh Johnson, stated in a letter dated May 2011 addressed to Dugan, “based on what we know, we are satisfied that, given your disqualification from matters related to RedXDefense and the procedures you have put in place, there has been no violation of conflict of interest laws or regulations in the selection or funding of RedXDefense’s proposals while you have been Director of DARPA”.

In March 2011, an article in Wired magazine stated that Dugan held stock in RedXDefense, her previous firm. In accordance with DoD policy, Dugan disclosed and recused from matters involving her former firm. A DARPA spokesperson stated that Dugan had no involvement in a 2010 contract award to RedXDefense, and that the contract was vetted by the agency’s top lawyer to assure there was no conflict. Subsequently, the LA Times and Wired reported that her company had received around $1.8M in DARPA contracts and that Dugan held a promissory note from RedXDefense in the amount of $250,000. Others have argued that the Wired reporters’ accusations are unjustified. In August, 2011, the Inspector General of the Department of Defense(DoD) began an investigation to ensure the procedures had been followed, and to examine DARPA’s general policies on conflict of interest as well as a specific concern that DARPA Director Regina Dugan retains financial ties to her former firm, which has won some $6 million in contracts with the agency, $4.3 million of which was awarded prior to her position as Director.

Dugan partially attributes DARPA’s success to Pasteur’s quadrant. Donald E. Stokes, a political scientist, used the term to describe innovation that solves practical problems and advances basic research. This contrasts with Bohr’s quadrant which seeks knowledge foundational to the world but does not consider practical application, and Edison’s quadrant which attempts to solve practical problems.

Dugan started working at DARPA in 1996. She led many multimillion-dollar research projects over the next four years. Her most famous research project, the “Dog’s Nose”, was the creation of an advanced portable system capable of detecting explosive landmines. She was named ‘Manager of Year’ in 1999 for her work at DARPA. In 2000, the United States Army Corps of Engineers awarded her the Bronze de Fleury Medal. She was also awarded by the United States Secretary Of Defense, specifically the Awards for Exceptional Service or Outstanding Achievement.

From July 2009 to March 2012, Dugan served as the 19th Director of DARPA and was the first woman to lead the Agency. As Director, she advanced strategic initiatives in the fields of cybersecurity, social media, and advanced manufacturing. She also led an active operational deployment in direct support of the war in Afghanistan for which the Agency was awarded the Joint Meritorious Unit Award.
