C<\/span>ARLISLE, Pennsylvania \u2014 Jamie Dimon sat on the stage with President Donald Trump, Sen. David McCormick (R-Pa.), Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, Secretary of the Army Dan Driscoll and investors. The CEO of JPMorgan Chase looked out at an auditorium filled with more than 1,500 people attending the inaugural Defense and Innovation Summit.<\/p>\n

\u201cGod knows this is how you guys have ignited the American dream, and you\u2019ve ignited security and resiliency,\u201d Dimon said to Trump. Dimon\u2019s unvarnished assessment is that of a man who understands that national strength is found in places like Pennsylvania, where laborers, investors and innovators are at the heart of creating jobs and keeping the country safe.\u00a0(RELATED: Defense Innovation Summit Looks to Keep America No. 1)<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cYou reignited that arsenal of democracy that we have in this country, and it\u2019s just critical,\u201d he told Trump in a state that the president renamed the \u201cMoney Belt\u201d after his recent visit to Mack Trucks in Allentown.
\nDimon also announced a JPMorgan Chase $24 million investment package to finance Rhoads Industries\u2019 new submarine facility and worker training programs at the Navy Yard.<\/p>\n

Dimon\u2019s assessment captured the energy and anticipation that centered on the commonwealth\u2019s role as a tangible microcosm of a national rebirth \u2014 one that McCormick recognized and worked hard to showcase.
\nDimon said he spent his morning at the historic Philadelphia Navy Yard, a place that built ships during the Revolutionary War and both World Wars before being left for dead and closed down.<\/p>\n

Today, thanks to a rare alignment of local, federal and private initiatives, Navy Yard is roaring back to life. \u201cYou now have the ships that are going to be built there by Hanwha, a Korean company, and Rhoads Industries,\u201d Dimon shared. \u201cThey\u2019re both adding four or 500 jobs \u2026 if they add those jobs, another 5,000 jobs will be added to support a lot of small vendors, contractors, et cetera.\u201d<\/p>\n

The true heart of reindustrialization belongs to the young men and women walking into America\u2019s trade schools and apprenticeship programs.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n

Dimon echoed what Trump and McCormick emphasized and what all the energy, artificial intelligence, robotics and defense manufacturers believe: The true heart of reindustrialization belongs to the young men and women walking into America\u2019s trade schools and apprenticeship programs.
\n\u201cThese welders get paid while they\u2019re in their apprenticeship. They get health care while they\u2019re in apprenticeship,\u201d Dimon said. \u201cWhen they graduate \u2026 they make $80,000 a year. That is the American dream. They go on and buy a house, get married, have a family.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dimon believes this formula must be replicated across the country, both to secure our future and to support our allies. \u201cMy hats are off. I applaud everyone in this room who\u2019s helping this effort,\u201d he concluded, looking toward the stage. \u201cThere\u2019s nothing more important for the world\u2019s safety for our children. Mr. President, thank you.\u201d<\/p>\n

The setting for these remarks could not have a more fitting backdrop. McCormick\u2019s inaugural Defense and Innovation Summit was held at the Army War College nestled in the Cumberland Valley, just west of the Susquehanna River, surrounded by the Blue Mountain range. It is home to one of the nation\u2019s oldest military installations, a place where the foundational dust of the American Revolution settles naturally into the high-tech reality of modern defense.<\/p>\n

For two days, military strategists, CEOs and elected leaders gathered to focus heavily on a radical transformation in AI, advanced manufacturing, data centers and investments in the defense sector.<\/p>\n

The summit was spearheaded by McCormick, who pulled no punches about the commonwealth\u2019s rightful place in this new era.<\/p>\n

The senator repeatedly reminded the crowd that Pennsylvania is the \u201cpoint of the spear\u201d at the intersection of national security, energy independence and advanced technology. To McCormick, the event wasn\u2019t just about policy.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe held this summit to showcase Pennsylvania\u2019s amazing industrial base, drive investments into the commonwealth, and position Pennsylvania as a leader in building the military of the future from shipbuilding and drones to critical minerals,\u201d said McCormick.<\/p>\n

Dina Powell McCormick, the president and vice chairman of Meta, as well as the wife of the senator, moderated the \u201cChoke Points: Critical Minerals and Manufacturing Capacity\u201d panel alongside Lockheed Martin CEO Jim Taiclet, Blackstone COO Jon Gray, Export-Import Bank President John Jovanovic and Palantir CTO Shyam Sankar, discussing strategies for securing defense supply chains.\u00a0(RELATED: China, Chokepoints, Blockades, and the Mahanian Revival)<\/strong><\/p>\n

McCormick told the Washington Examiner<\/em> that none of this would have happened were it not for Trump\u2019s policies and his understanding of the capabilities and skillsets in the heartland.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe summit convened more than 600 C-suite executives representing 500 companies and more than 130 booths, demonstrating an incredible gathering of Pennsylvania\u2019s industrial and business leadership. We also had more than 30 announcements totaling nearly $10 billion in new investment, supporting 5,000 new jobs,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Walking through the academic buildings, you could see the physical manifestation of a state putting its shoulder to the wheel. Over 1,550 people were packed into Root Hall, visiting the exhibitor booths and displays as robots walked or crawled around the first floor.<\/p>\n

It was a curated crossroads where Pennsylvania\u2019s premier defense contractors, agile emerging startups, energy companies and labor unions stood side-by-side.<\/p>\n

Global giants, including York County-based BAE Systems and General Dynamics, shared the floor with local workforce leaders and small robotics developers, demonstrating everything from massive defense vehicles to autonomous security tools such as Asylon Robotics\u2019 \u201cDroneDog.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jake Loosararian, the charismatic founder of Pittsburgh-based Gecko Robotics, stood in front of his booth and showcased the defense work that the company does with the Department of War. Loosararian said that Trump being in Pennsylvania is both a statement and a flag in the ground for the reindustrialization of America.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt signifies the importance of that from a national security standpoint, not just for building but also for sustaining the existing military assets that we have,\u201d Loosararian said. \u201cWe are ensuring that our military is ready for the fight, that\u2019s what Gecko\u2019s all about, and that\u2019s what the summit\u2019s all about.\u201d<\/p>\n

What is happening here is the quiet, fierce reindustrialization of the commonwealth. By linking the grit of Pennsylvania\u2019s manufacturing heritage with the forward-facing power of energy production and AI, these industries are proving that manufacturing is a core element of patriotism.<\/p>\n

When you combine that blue-collar muscle with the elite research of academia and university researchers, Pennsylvania effectively repositions itself as the center of gravity for American innovation.<\/p>\n

The day\u2019s momentum built steadily from Wednesday morning\u2019s very first panel, titled \u201cLessons from the Battlefield: The Changing Character of War.\u201d Sitting on that stage was Thomas Tull, the Pittsburgh-based businessman, co-chairman of TWG Global, and minority owner of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Tull has turned his passion into investing in American success and grit by redeveloping dormant facilities such as the historic Alcoa plant in New Kensington into vibrant hubs for modern manufacturing and advanced AI.<\/p>\n

During the roundtable, Tull gave voice to the quiet urgency driving the innovators in the room. \u201cWe have invested billions of dollars in defense tech because we know that we need it,\u201d Tull said. \u201cWe know that we have to, because we live in a dangerous world. We have to defend that, and we have to be leaders.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tull looked toward the executive branch\u2019s procurement shifts, telling Trump, \u201cWithout the change that you\u2019re causing, Mr. President, these things aren\u2019t possible. It\u2019s going to make a massive difference for the next 20 years.\u201d<\/p>\n

The peak of this momentum was felt clearly during the headlining panel. Trump announced concrete victories for Pittsburgh-based innovators that tie directly into this grand strategic vision. He highlighted Eos Energy Enterprises, which secured a milestone Golden Dome for America contract from the War Department to develop long-duration energy storage systems crucial for powering a proposed domestic missile defense shield.<\/p>\n

The president announced an $84 million multiyear contract for Qintel, a bootstrapped cyber intelligence firm operating right out of Pittsburgh\u2019s North Shore, allowing it to scale its specialized services for U.S. Cyber Command. It is a vivid reminder that the front line of modern deterrence runs straight through Western Pennsylvania\u2019s tech sector.<\/p>\n

The men and women who attend the college and summit are the custodians of a long, proud tradition of community and defense. This base has stood the test of time since its inception as an outpost in the 1750s. Back then, Carlisle was simply an intersecting trade route. It served as the last stop for traders and settlers heading toward the forks of the Ohio.<\/p>\n

In 1777, the Continental Army seized the post. It used it as a prisoner of war camp to house captured German Hessian mercenaries. Those very prisoners built the Hessian Powder Magazine, a stone building that still stands today.<\/p>\n

The historic grounds have evolved significantly since George Washington permanently encamped here in 1794. It went on to become the pre-Civil War U.S. Army Cavalry School, was home to the Carlisle Indian Industrial School, and survived occupation and fire by Confederate cavalry in 1863.<\/p>\n

Today, the U.S. Army War College continues to shape the future of military strategy. Its doors host a unique mix of minds. Alongside students from all branches of the U.S. military, the campus welcomes civilian intelligence officers and international officers.<\/p>\n

These individuals bring diverse perspectives to the Cumberland Valley, Maj. Gen. Trevor J. Bredenkamp, the 1st president and commanding general of Army University, told the Examiner.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cWe are uniquely charged with preparing people to lead America\u2019s sons and daughters in the crucible of common,\u201d said Bredenkamp. \u201cAnd so all the 130 booths here, they are building the things that our leaders need to be able to understand how to employ when called. And so it\u2019s the nexus of all that academia, industry, government.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bredenkamp said that having Trump come to the War College is incredible.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe president speaks a lot about peace through strength. And strength is not just weapons and equipment and technology; it\u2019s people, and the Army is people,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey say technology has changed, but the one thing that remains constant is the human dimension, and we have to be prepared to do that,\u201d he continued. \u201cAnd so shining that light on Carlisle Barracks, Carlisle, Pennsylvania, the contributions of this commonwealth to the nation for the last 270 years, and what we need to do moving forward is really important.\u201d<\/p>\n

The transition from a colonial frontier outpost to a premier center for strategic thought is remarkable. The very grounds that once stored gunpowder and held prisoners now foster radical transformation in modern warfare. By bridging American military might from our founding to today, the U.S. Army War College remains a vital pillar of America\u2019s strength and resilience.<\/p>\n

Gov. Josh Shapiro (D-Pa.), who was on a panel with McCormick on Wednesday, told the Examiner<\/em> that Carlisle Barracks has remained significant to our nation throughout its 270-year history.<\/p>\n

Shapiro said it was fitting that McCormick held the event where so much rich history had unfolded as the commonwealth looks to the future. \u201cThe future of American national security is not what it\u2019s looked like for the last 40 or 50 years, relying on a handful of prime defense contractors who do important work. Instead, it\u2019s about integrating what happens at a place like this, what\u2019s happening in our universities, what\u2019s happening at our tech companies,\u201d Shapiro said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhether it\u2019s at Gecko or EOS or Qintel or any of these other companies in Western Pennsylvania and all across our commonwealth, and marrying that up with our unique labor that have the ability to build stuff. All of that is going to put us in a position to thrive in the future,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Trump was all smiles at the warm welcome he received at the War College. At an event, McCormick had both Dimon and Sean McGarvey, the president of North America\u2019s Building Trades Unions, at the same table. Trump introduced McGarvey as \u201cthe most powerful man in the room.\u201d<\/p>\n

McGarvey joked that because of Trump\u2019s years spent working in development, the president knows his business better than he does.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve been in the workforce development business when it comes to construction skills for a hundred-plus years. We have 1,600 training centers across the United States, spend $3 billion of our own money every year, and we don\u2019t need any money from anybody in the audience, anybody on the podium, the federal government,\u201d McGarvey proudly said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat we need is deals, and we need deals way further up the pipeline when other decisions are being made,\u201d he continued. \u201cOur members have historically been just great patriots in this country, whether it was World War I, World War II, building the airstrips and the bases across the world; it was the members of the building trades that stepped up and did it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) also appeared on a panel on Tuesday evening hosted by the Ruthless Podcast. He and McCormick discussed the need to work together to bring projects across the line, from Washington, D.C., to Pennsylvania.<\/p>\n

The event came exactly one year after McCormick\u2019s highly successful Energy and Innovation summit at Carnegie Mellon University.<\/p>\n

During the panel, Trump turned to McCormick and joked that it was the second time that the senator had persuaded him to come to the state. The president deadpanned, \u201cWhatever you are doing next year, I\u2019ll be here.\u201d<\/p>\n
