President & CEO, Riverside Research

Dr. Steven Omick’s greatest recent achievement was assembling an exceptional leadership team at Riverside Research.

“We’ve recruited and mentored outstanding leaders, then empowered them to excel in delivering top-tier solutions,” he said. “Together, we’re pushing forward to provide the best possible support to our mission partners.”

Why Watch 

In 2025, Riverside Research will focus on delivering solutions to mission partners that address critical challenges, including enhanced intelligence, cyber resilience, spectrum dominance, space protection, secure communications and hypersonic threats.

Omick and the leadership team are also dedicated to establishing Riverside Research, through the Open Innovation Center, as a thought leader in national security by sharing insights and driving industrywide innovation.

“I’m profoundly grateful to lead Riverside Research, a National Security nonprofit that combines advanced technologies with an unwavering commitment to our mission,” Omick said. “We prioritize our people as the driving force behind every success. I’m proud to stand with a team that truly ‘walks the talk’ of service.”

Fun fact: If he’s not at work, Omick can usually be found riding his bike on the Washington and Old Dominion Trail. “It’s my favorite way to unwind and recharge,” he said.
