Ventura Tech Bridge Joins NavalX Network

Fathomwerx, a local innovation lab created through a partnership between Naval Surface Warfare Center, Port Hueneme Division (NSWC PHD), the Port of Hueneme and
other industry partners, was designated as the Ventura Tech Bridge to the U.S. Navy's nationwide Naval Agility (NavalX) network of partners Tuesday.

Tech Bridges are relationship-based networks established within regions of the U.S. where connections already exist among U.S. Navy and Marine Corps
facilities, private industry and academia. A Tech Bridge provides a platformso those relationships can expand through a broader, national network to
innovate new ideas, products and solutions for the Navy's fleet and warfighter. Guerts established NavalX in February 2019 and announced the
first five Tech Bridge locations in September, with a sixth announced in December.
