Dr. Seth Harvey is chief executive officer and co-founder of Bluestaq, a Colorado Springs-based software company pioneering secure data management solutions for the U.S. Department of Defense and Intelligence Community. Under his leadership, Bluestaq has grown from a startup in 2018 to a global enterprise with more than 200 employees and contracts exceeding $700 million.

Harvey began his career as an aerospace engineer at the Air Force Research Laboratory’s Space Vehicles Directorate, where he led research and development programs for next-generation space technologies. He later served as vice president of space operations at Intelligent Software Solutions, managing a $100 million portfolio of space programs.

Harvey’s leadership emphasizes innovation, trust and empowerment. “If you invest in your people, they’ll build the impossible,” he said. His people-first approach has earned Bluestaq national recognition as one of the best workplaces in the technology sector. The company’s proprietary platforms have revolutionized space domain awareness and real-time intelligence sharing across allied partners.

In addition to his role at Bluestaq, Harvey serves as managing partner of ONE Funds and as a partner and advisor to OneBowRiver, investment groups supporting small businesses and critical defense technologies. He also serves as vice chairman of the Colorado Springs Chamber & EDC and sits on several regional economic and workforce development boards.
