Welcome to “Tough Tech Vets,” a podcast series focused on veteran entrepreneurs solving hard problems at the intersection of hardware and software. I’m your host Chris Ricks. I'm a former Naval Submarine Officer and Founder of Starcube, a small modular reactor company that’s focused on building microreactors for critical infrastructure.

Tough Tech refers to transformational technology that solves the world's most pressing challenges through the convergence of breakthrough science, engineering, and leadership. Think of critical technology domains such as biotechnology, quantum computing, artificial intelligence, and the list goes on.
