Description Academi tries to take a scholarly approach to military contracting. The company (formerly Xe Services, and before that, Blackwater Worldwide) has narrowed its focus to become primarily a provider of military and technical training services for counterterrorism operations, force protection, law enforcement agencies, and other private security operations. As Blackwater Worldwide, public scrutiny of its military work during the US-led invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan forced an image re-do. In 2010 Academi was acquired by investor group USTC Holdings for about $200 million.
