Empower AI has named Ryan Hopper to lead its Military Services Business Unit, bringing 24 years of experience working with Defense Department and intelligence customers.
“I’m extremely excited to join the Empower AI team and to move the needle for some of our nation’s most critical military customers,” Hopper said. “I’m even more excited to enable our customers to implement AI and modernized IT systems faster across a variety of use cases, to drive efficiencies at scale and stay ahead of our adversaries.”
Hopper, who succeeds Darryl Jackson, most recently served as a vice president at Peraton and led a large operating unit for strategic programs and combatant commands.
