Explore Our Practice Areas
Each of our practice areas follows a set of principles to identify which ideas will become the next Red Cell company and positively impact the world around us.
Healthcare Practice
X-rays, first discovered in 1895, represented a transformative breakthrough that ushered in the era of modern medicine, paving the way for MRIs, ultrasounds, and other imaging techniques in use today. Pictured here, a doctor and nurse read X-rays, circa 1959.
Healthcare Practice
Cyber Practice
Founded in response to the launch of the Sputnik satellite by the Soviet Union and fears of a surprise nuclear attack, the Advanced Research Projects Agency – a branch of the U.S. Defense Department – created ARPANET in the late 1960s to link computers at Pentagon-funded research institutions. ARPANET would become the forerunner to the Internet.
Cyber Practice
National Security Practice
Developed in 1959, the Air Battle Analyzer nomograph, shown here, was the first computer-supported air defense planning tool and used to explore possible solutions to Naval anti-air warfare issues.
