    When investing in research and development (R&D), institutions must decide whether to take a top-down approach - soliciting a particular technology - or a bottom-up approach in which innovators suggest ideas. This paper examines a reform to the U.S. Air Force Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program that transitioned from "Conventional topics," which solicit specific technologies, to "Open topics," which invite firms to suggest any new technology that may be useful to the Air Force. The reform seeks to address challenges facing military R&D, in particular a less innovative defense industrial base. We show that the Open program attracts new entrants, defined as younger firms and those without previous defense SBIR awards. In a regression discontinuity design that offers the first causal evaluation of a defense R&D program, we show that winning an Open award increases future venture capital investment, non-SBIR defense contracting, and patenting. Conventional awards have no effect on these outcomes but do increase the chances of future defense SBIR contracts, fostering incumbency. The bottom-up approach appears to be a mechanism behind Open's success. For example, winning has a positive effect on innovation even in less specific Conventional topics. The results suggest that government (and perhaps private sector) innovation could benefit from more bottom-up, decentralized approaches that reduce barriers to entry, minimize lock-in advantages for incumbents, and attract a wider range of new entrants.

    This paper aims to offer a panoramic view of the international performance of Brazilian defense sector. Based on an exploratory study from a new dataset, our goal is to analyze both the international performance of the Brazilian defense sector and the country's foreign military missions in the recent period. Additionally, the study offers a novel dataset to assess defense policy, support planning, and collaborate with democratic controls over the defense sector. The study's conclusion are as follows: i) there is a low political direction from the Brazilian Ministry of Defense on international missions; ii) there is a disproportionate concentration of interactions with the United States; iii) there is an imbalance in the emphasis on hemispheric institutions linked to the Organization of American States (OAS) in relation to other international institutions; iv) there is a growth of the regional interactions with Colombia, which overtook Argentina as the main destination for regional interactions; v) there was a relative increase in technical missions and military consultancies in Brazil's strategic surrounding countries; and vi) posts in companies and acquisition commissions are consistent with the main strategic defense programs and the origins of Brazilian defense equipment, but they must be improved. Finally, the study presents 14 public policy recommendations.
