Starburst ICDA Demo Day

​Join Starburst for the inaugural Demo Day of the ICDA accelerator, showcasing the leading aerospace, defense (dual-use), and space startups building in the San Antonio to Austin Innovation Corridor.

​Over the past several months, these eight companies have worked alongside Starburst and its network of investors, primes, and government partners to sharpen their technology, refine their go-to-market strategies, and accelerate their path into the defense and aerospace markets.

​The ICDA program is helping build the region between San Antonio and Austin into a nationally distinctive ecosystem for aerospace, defense, and space innovation, and Demo Day is the capstone: each startup will take the stage to pitch its technology, traction, and vision to an audience of investors, industry leaders, government stakeholders, and the broader ecosystem.
