8The Lockheed Martin Center for Innovation, also known as “The Lighthouse”, is located in Suffolk, Virginia. The facility takes its nickname from the working lighthouse housed in its atrium, from the fertile maritime history of the Hampton Roads area and from the inherent function of lighthouses in guiding navigators to safety.

8It is the Lighthouse mission to connect Lockheed Martin expertise with operationally focused custom-ers. Leveraging its proximity, the Center for Innovation develops and demonstrates relevant and affordable solutions to key customers with a focus on Concepts of Operations.

8The Center for Innovation is Lockheed Martin’s hub for cross-domain integration, experimentation, deci-sion analysis, and modeling & simulation, in real and synthetic environments. The facility and its staff are trusted partners in formulating solutions with multiple partners in experiments, analysis, demonstrations, and workshops. In partnership with Lockheed Martin, every customer gains value from the Lighthouse.
