Missions + Markets 2.0
Startups must apply here by Sept 15 - APPLICATION LINK
Join VC in DC for our second Missions + Markets event!
Home to The Pentagon, Virginia Tech’s new Innovation Campus, and leading defense contractors, the National Landing neighborhood is positioned to be the region’s premier defense and dual-use technology ecosystem.
To accelerate this vision, partners including Arlington Economic Development (AED) and JBG Smith (JBGS) are leading an effort to formalize an innovation hub across National Landing that will see the world’s greatest thinkers converge to take on national and global challenges in advanced computing, cybersecurity, and defense technology. The result will be a neighborhood that provides the connections, programming, and resources necessary for startups to thrive.
Building on the success of April’s inaugural Missions + Markets event, you are invited to this exclusive encore event designed to facilitate connections in National Landing between funders and startups in the defense and dual-use sectors.
And a big thank you to all of our partners: JP Morgan, Upstate Venture Connect, Finstrat Management, CSC Leasing, Carta, Hawkeye 360, VIPC, Pillsbury, JBG Smith, and Arlington Economic Development.
Attendance will be limited to 20 startups and 30 investors.
