​Session I: The line between climate tech and national security is blurring: energy sovereignty, critical-infrastructure resilience, supply-chain redundancy and rapid disaster response are all strategic priorities for states. We’ll explore dual-use opportunities, procurement pathways, risk profiles and how founders can de-risk adoption by aligning with national resilience agendas.

​Takeaway question: What product, commercial or regulatory moves help founders build climate solutions that also deliver measurable national security value - and how can investors back those pathways?
