As Military Appreciation Month draws to a close, Take2 would like to recognize and thank the veterans, active-duty service members, reservists, and military spouses who are part of our team.

The Take2 team is heading to TechNet Cyber 2026! We’re excited to join government, military, and industry leaders in Baltimore for this important event hosted by AFCEA, focused on the technologies, partnerships, and strategies shaping the future of cybersecurity and national defense.

This year’s conference will explore key topics including AI-enabled cyber operations, Zero Trust, mission readiness, emerging threats, and collaboration across government and industry.

Representing Take2 at this year’s event will be Anna Bishop, Joanie Mirabella, Sara Ghannam, and Sabrina Townsend. We look forward to connecting throughout the week.

Today, we pause to remember and honor those who gave their lives in service to our nation.

The Take2 team is heading to Bullhorn Engage 2026!

Nick DeFelice, Ryan Boyden, Michael Farrell, and James Murdoch will be onsite in Boston exploring the latest innovations shaping the future of staffing, recruiting, and AI-enabled business operations.

We’re also excited to have Nick featured as a speaker on the panel, “The New Business Development Playbook: Winning with AI in Today’s Staffing Market.”

Throughout the week, the team will be engaging with Bullhorn’s latest features, platform capabilities, and best practices as Take2 continues to invest in innovation and AI-driven strategies across the business.

Take2 was proud to support this year’s St. Jude Open, benefiting St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.

Representing Take2 on the course this year were Nick DeFelice, Mark Dever, and Serge Khoury.

We are grateful to the organizers, sponsors, and participants who make this event possible and help support the incredible work St. Jude does for children and families every day.

AI is changing how staffing firms win new business, and our own Nick DeFelice will be at the Bullhorn, Inc. Engage Boston conference breaking down what that actually looks like in practice.

In “The New Business Development Playbook: Winning with AI in today’s staffing market,” Nick and fellow panelists will share real-world strategies for smarter prospecting, more personalized outreach, and faster deal cycles.

If you are heading to Engage Boston, make sure this one is on your schedule.

In observance of Mental Health Awareness Month, Take2 recently hosted a virtual Workplace Mental Health Workshop focused on supporting employee well-being and fostering healthier workplace conversations.

Led by an expert facilitator, the session explored topics including factors that affect mental health, the impact of stigma in the workplace, and practical strategies for mindfulness and stress reduction.

At Take2, we believe supporting mental wellness is an important part of building a positive, collaborative, and people-first culture.

Take2 will be attending SOF Week 2026 in Tampa later this month.

Joe McDonald and Justin Polanco will represent our team as we connect with leaders across the special operations and defense community and continue conversations around mission-focused technology, staffing, and consulting solutions.

We’re looking forward to engaging with partners, exploring emerging priorities across the defense landscape, and supporting the evolving needs of the SOF community.
