ROME, N.Y. — Steven J. DiMeo, president of Mohawk Valley EDGE, has been chosen by the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) to join its newly launched Civic Leader Program, MV EDGE announced Friday.

The Air Force Research Laboratory is the primary scientific research and development center for the Department of the Air Force and plays an integral role in leading the discovery, development, and integration of affordable warfighting technologies for air, space, and cyberspace forces.
