About Event

Missions + Markets is kicking off 2026 by pulling back the curtain on the strategic investment landscape for defense and dual-use technology. Join us as three leading Corporate Venture Capitalists (CVCs) discuss their current investment priorities, internal evaluation processes, and how they partner with founders to scale critical innovations. Whether you are a founder or an industry leader, this session provides a practical roadmap for navigating the bridge between commercial capital and national security missions.

Attendees should have a strong connection to the dual-use/national security tech industry.
