The Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity (IARPA) is a US agency under Director of National Intelligence's responsibility.

Its goal [1] is to conduct research that

   * Cuts across multiple IC agencies;
   * Targets new opportunities that lie in the white spaces between agencies;
   * Provides innovations that agencies avoid because of current business models; and
   * Generates revolutionary capabilities that will surprise our adversaries and help us avoid being surprised.
