Building Alliances is an integral DNA of AHDC business operations. For each of our initiatives, our starting point is to deploy the Triple Helix approach of bringing Academia (Knowledge), Industry (Enterprise) and Government (Policy) to the table as stakeholders. The prototypical structure of these alliances is embodied by the American Heritage Defense Alliance (AHDA), as stipulated in the Bye-Laws of our organization. Alliances for each initiative are formed in a manner consistent with the provisions of AHDA.
