In The News: Army Vet, Day & Zimmermann SVP Mike Bosco Talks Defense Landscape

In the News Mike Bosco (2)As featured on GovCon Wire, Mike Bosco holds more than 20 years of military and intelligence experience, but he ended up in government contracting somewhat by chance. Upon retiring from the military in 2012, he was intent on transitioning to federal civilian work, maybe in the Intelligence Community. However, perhaps surprisingly, it takes extensive time and enduring a lot of arduous processes to make the leap from the military to the IC. When trying to figure out how he was going to do this, a friend asked if he wanted to pursue a business opportunity.

This led Bosco down the path of the industrial base, where he has thrived for the past 12 years at companies such as BAE Systems, Akima and now, for the last year and a half, Day & Zimmermann. Bosco is the latter company’s senior vice president of business development and government services, wherein he works directly with the departments of State, Energy and Defense, as well as the IC and various other agencies and non-governmental organizations. Every day, he is channeling the passion for upholding the national security of the U.S. that he gained in his days in the Army and other service commands.

GovCon Wire had the privilege of speaking with Bosco recently about where the U.S. stands in the current great power competition, how the defense landscape has shifted since his days on the front lines and the centrality of technologies like quantum to the fight.
