DIBX Private Dinner hosted by Playground Global: Fielding the Quantum Advantage
On the margins of the inaugural Defense Industrial Base Accelerator (DIBX), Playground Global will convene a private, invite-only strategy dinner in Philadelphia, bringing together senior government officials, leading capital providers, and C-suite leaders from across the defense and quantum technology ecosystem.
Held under Chatham House Rules, this private discussion is designed to foster a candid exchange on the strategic actions required to accelerate the development, deployment, and scaling of defense-relevant quantum technologies.
The quantum advantage of tomorrow is being decided by policy and investment decisions today. With this year's quantum executive orders now in force, the mandate has shifted from strategy to execution — turning sensing, cryptography, and computing directives into fielded defense capability. Procurement pathways, capital formation, and technical standards will determine which nations, companies, and capabilities lead over the next decade. Proving quantum works at scale is one hurdle. Integrating it into the systems, platforms, and decision cycles of national security is the one that actually matters.
This dinner is designed to bring together the leaders of a small but critical ecosystem — spanning quantum technology, defense, and capital — to drive alignment on near-term priorities and outcomes that move deployment forward.
