On February 3, Woven Solutions announced the appointment of intelligence community veteran Wayne McCool to its board of advisors. This announcement follows Woven’s recent establishment of a board of advisors to support growth initiatives, recent acquisition of Cystemic Security in November of last year, and its partnership with Falfurrias Management Partners in August of last year.
McCool, a former Senior Intelligence Service officer in the Central Intelligence Agency’s Directorate of Analysis, brings deep intelligence community experience to Woven. With more than three decades of military and intelligence experience leading global intelligence programs and digital transformation efforts, he served in multiple C-suite roles at CIA, providing strategic planning and risk management and building high impact teams. His most recent assignment was the associate deputy director for analysis, which is responsible for identifying global risks, emerging trends, and actionable opportunities for policy makers and military leaders. He ensured the quality of global intelligence analysis at the CIA, the professional development of the several thousand officers, and the innovation of technology, tools, and capabilities for the analytic workflow.
McCool joins Michael Widener, another former Senior Intelligence Service executive at CIA focused on human intelligence collection and covert action, as the second member of Woven’s board of advisors. McCool will help drive strategy and mission focus as Woven accelerates their delivery of AI-enabled software that powers the full intelligence cycle for national security customers. He will provide invaluable insights for some of Woven’s largest programs, including the delivery of software and solutions which support the production and dissemination of finished intelligence products across the intelligence community.
“Wayne McCool’s addition to Woven’s board of advisors marks an important step for the company,” said Ajay Patel, co-founder and senior partner of Woven. “His deep understanding of the intelligence cycle, long-standing relationships across the intelligence community, and decades of experience will directly strengthen our ability to support the nation’s most critical intelligence missions.”
