Pacific Foundry: Discussion Group

​The Discussion Group, powered by Pacific Foundry Thursday, September 24 6:00 to 8:00 PM

​We’re bringing together people who build hard things. Founders and operators in defense, space, and advanced manufacturing, the acquisition and policy side of the government table, and the investors funding the industrial base underneath all of it.

​For the past year we have been doing that in Southern California. In September we are going to start doing it in Washington. We’re kicking off the series with an open floor on where defense and space are headed next.

​Future sessions will dive deeper—featuring off-the-record guest speakers, seminal works, and targeted policy and industry debates. This is not a conference. There is no stage, no panel, and no badge. Fifty people in a living room, drinks in hand, skipping straight to the conversation that happens after the panel ends.
