Pentagon’s tech innovation head abruptly steps down

The influential head of the Defense Innovation Unit — the Pentagon’s in-house tech incubator — abruptly stepped down on Monday, removing the last high-profile Biden administration holdover at the Defense Department and severing a key link with Silicon Valley. Doug Beck, a former vice president at Apple, said Monday in a goodbye email that it would be his last day, according to two people familiar with the matter. He did not provide any reason for his departure.
